your mission completed: maple vs. honey

t e am h on e y

Last week, we challenged you to take sides in a battle between scrumptious sweeteners. In the end, more Gastroposters voted for Team Maple, which was fuelled by patriotism, Pancake Tuesday and a sense that maple goes with winter. On these pages, Twitter handles are in blue and Instagram in brown.

your next mission:

pub grub With St. Patrick’s day celebrations around the corner, it’s no surprise we’re starting to see green. And what better way to celebrate Irish culture than with pub grub? Your mission this week is to head to a local tavern and share your love of reliably satisfying pub food with Gastropost. Or recreate a pub-style dish at home, whether a British Isles favourite like fish and chips, full Irish breakfast or bangers and mash, or a North American bar staple like nachos or wings.

Mission Inspiration Invented in Buffalo, N.Y., in the 1960s, the spicy, deep-fried chicken wing has since spread across North America to become a reliable fixture in countless bars. If you might be in the mood for a fancified alternative, check out Gastroposter Linda Matarasso’s discovery: This delectable, hand-dipped-in-buttermilk fried chicken at The Fifth Pubhouse.
