Welcome to the Taste Report. I’m Cinda Chavich, your Taste Reporter, a journalist reporting on the wide world of food and drink.
Think of me as your culinary concierge, a source of information and inspiration, offering a taste of where and what to eat, with a deep, well-researched dive into all things edible.
I focus my food writing and travel writing on my home turf, in beautiful British Columbia, Canada, but I also travel widely to uncover eclectic and interesting food stories. Learn all about local ingredients — wherever local may be — and get recipes to make delicious dishes with the spoils of your food foraging.
Or if you’re planning a trip, whether it’s a road trip to Tofino on Vancouver Island or a walkabout in Belfast, my travel stories will take you on an inspiring and tasty armchair adventure.
Food connects us all — so settle in and come along for the ride, and the read — where food and culture collide!
