What’s Cooking – Wednesday, February 3rd

Here's what's cooking around town today...

When chefs burn out - not all of them can afford to shut down their businesses for 6 month - or 2 years - to rejuvenate. [Globe and Mail]

K-Market won't be getting that much debated Starbucks, but the corner of Nassau and Augusta will soon be home to a tapas bar. Because we don't have enough of those, apparently. [Torontoist]

I think that for the StuporBowl, people shouldn't just pull out the same out "game food" of wings and nachos. How about foods that are traditional to the hometowns of the teams? Because Hoosier bars and Shrimp Po-Boys sound a hell of a lot better than the same old greasy stuff. [Toronto Sun]

What responsibility do chefs have for not only ensuring sustainability and equality of access in their own work, but in getting the word out to their fans and customers? [Joshna Maharaj's Posterous]

Note to self - when using the loo at Mildred's, try not to touch anything. ANYTHING. I love the folks at Mildred's Temple Kitchen, but I don't really want or need to know that people are having sex in their washrooms. For honest... ick. [Toronto Star]

It this the end of the Steelback era? [Canadian Beer News]

You got no iiiiice cream, you got no iiiiice cream... Toronto's best artisanal ice cream treats, most running under $10 so even if "you're on the welfare" you can probably still afford some. [Toronto Life]

Caplansky's - not closed, just partying. [Caplansky's Delicatessen]

Coffee and tea - mixed together?? It's not crazy talk - its true. [National Post: The Appetizer]

And if you missed the Ontario game dinner at Hank's last night, I've posted a recap to taunt you. [Save Your Fork]
