newyear.jpgFirst, a toast to a really fabulous 2007, with thanks to everyone who helped and supported TasteTO during our first year of publication. We are overwhelmed by the fantastic reaction our site has had from Toronto’s foodie community and have great plans for the new year.

Huge, huge thanks with much gratitude to all of our writers, past and present, who worked so hard for us with little compensation. Your many voices and perspectives have ensured that TasteTO truly represents the array of culinary delights in our wonderful city. We are truly honoured to have all of you on our team.

Thanks as well to all of the chefs, restaurants, shops, farmers, market organizers, brewers and winemakers, food advocates, PR companies and gossip columnists who allowed us to pick their brains, take their photos, raid their space, scarf their fois gras, sip their wines, and rearrange their display cases to get the perfect photo. Thanks to the many friends who sat by in amusement as we sampled and photographed their food before they were allowed to eat it.

And finally, thanks to you, our readers. We have worked hard this year to bring you some of the best food writing this city has to offer, and watching our hits increase every month as more and more people find the site has been thrilling.

We have great stuff planned for 2008 with more new columns and contests, merchandise bearing our super-cool logo designed by graphic artist Will Skol, as well as some tastings and other events.

Sincere wishes for a joyful, prosperous and truly beautiful 2008 to everyone!

Sheryl & Greg

    Here’s one person that visits your site on a daily basis (It’s in my dailies bookmarks)

    Congratulations on a fantastic year. I have seen more ‘meaningful’ content published on this site than any other. Sometimes it’s very hard to keep up with all the articles.

    Best of luck in 2008, I’m looking forward to all the cool new ideas you guys have in store.
