About BC Books Online
BC Books Online was created for anyone interested in BC-published books, and with librarians especially in mind. We'd like to make it easy for library staff to learn about books from BC publishers - both new releases and backlist titles - so you can inform your patrons and keep your collections up to date.
Our site features print books and ebooks - both new releases and backlist titles - all of which are available to order through regular trade channels. Browse our subject categories to find books of interest or create and export lists by category to cross-reference with your library's current collection.
A quick tip: When reviewing the "Browse by Category" listings, please note that these are based on standardized BISAC Subject Codes supplied by the books' publishers. You will find additional selections, grouped by theme or region, in our "BC Reading Lists."

Description
As one of the most culturally diverse cities on the continent, Vancouver is home to people from all around the world—and to their favourite foods.
Flavours of Vancouver is a sublime collection of recipes gathered from the Lower Mainland’s cbc Radio listeners. Some are traditional family specialties, others mix a particular culinary heritage with local ingredients to create a uniquely West Coast taste sensation. Family recipes from some of Vancouver’s top chefs add spice notes along the way, and each of the recipes is accompanied by a tale about the dish’s origins. The contents of this charming cookbook are as diverse as Vancouver’s citizens themselves. Explore the cultural heritage of Greater Vancouver through the recipes and stories of the people who live here. Some of the proceeds from the sales of this book will go to Save the Children Canada.
