Diane Clement at the Tomato

Diane Clement

Opened in 1991 by Diane Clement and her partners, Vancouver's Tomato Fresh Food Cafe has quickly become one of the city's funkiest eateries and meeting places for writers, artists, athletes, musicians, actors, and anyone who loves down-to-earth home-cooking sprinkled with considerable international panache.Now, for the first time, the self-styled Chef on the Run reveals the secrets of the Tomato's great success in a cookbook like no other. Crammed with recipes culled from the cafe's menus over the years, choice behind-the-scenes tales and anecdotes of the restaurant's boisterous daily business, helpful tips and food trivia, and droll line drawings by stage designer/artist Ken MacDonald, Diane Clement at the Tomato serves as a "biography" of a quintessential diner of the nineties.
