This year’s Festa was attended by over 150 adults and at least 50 children. We put special emphasis on the children this year, with two separate children’s activities, theater and crafts, and a choir recital in Italian by the children from the ICS Italian Language Program, and of course Babbo Natale (Riccardo Cannavo’), La Befana (Sabrina Munao), and the Elves (Lucio and Edvige D’Andrea) handing out presents to the kids. See pictures on page 10. Of course our star attraction was Lyric-Coloratura Soprano Angela Knight, back by popular demand, singing operatic arias and Christmas carols and two versions of Ave Maria.

Finding Great Desserts in Vancouver is as Easy as 1 (Pastry), 2 (Scoops of Gelato), 3 (Doughnuts) JAY FRIEDMAN My trips to Vancouver tend to focus primarily on Asian food. And why not, when the area has some of the best dim sum, xiao long bao, sushi, and ramen in North America? But after dining on so many savory delicacies, I inevitably start to crave sweets. Eating around the city, I've come up with recommendations that should satisfy any sweet tooth: one pastry, two scoops of gelato, and three donuts. At Beaucoup Bakery , choosing just one treat is quite the challenge. The pastries are pretty solid (the plain croissant scores high on my scrutiny test, and the pine nut croissant is impressive), the tarts are works of art, and I still dream about a cookie that's rich with chocolate and rosemary �avor. However if I was forced to recommend one item worth the visit, I'd suggest the Black Sesame Choux ($6). Essentially a religieuse, the two pastry buns are reminiscent of Chinese or Vietnamese sesame seed balls, but much better quality. Rich and creamy, they're topped with fondant and studded with candied black sesame seeds. Jackie Ellis sources the best Japanese black sesame to make her paste, which she mixes with pastry cream and lots of salt. The wafer of sesame nougatine between the balls is like a sesame snap of the black variety.

  • Pain Au Chocolat Makes 24 Pastries
    _____________________________________________________________________________________ Pain au Chocolat Makes 24 pastries These wonderful pastries were the inspiration for us in learning about croissant dough and mastering the methods. There’s something about biting into flaky, bread layers and finding a bite of special chocolate in the middle. The process is the same as basic croissant up to the final formation and last rising. We’ve used the classic shape of a rolled rectangle for the version presented here. Serve them warm with your favorite coffee or tea. 1 Tbsp (1.5 pkg) active dry yeast 6 Tbsp warm water Two good pinches of sugar 3-1/2 cups flour 1-1/3 cups milk, warmed 1-1/2 Tbsp. sugar 1 Tbsp. salt 4 Tbsp. butter, cut into 8 chunks 1/2 lb. (2 sticks) unsalted butter, chilled Extra flour for dusting while rolling 1 egg (for egg wash) 12 oz. dark, bittersweet chocolate PART 1 – MIXING THE DOUGH 1. ACTIVATE the yeast. The water should be between 95-100°F, or comfortably warm to the inside of the wrist. Add two good pinches of sugar and stir to dissolve prior to adding the yeast granules. Swirl the sweetened water, and sprinkle the yeast on top while the water is still moving. Allow to sit for 5-7 minutes or until the top is nicely foamy and the yeast awakened. 2. MEASURE the flour and place in a large mixing bowl. 3. WARM the milk with the sugar, salt, and 4 Tbsp. butter (cut into chunks) added until 95-100°F, or comfortable to the inside of the wrist and the butter melted.
