Acken and Emily Lycopolus do a spectacular job of gathering it all up and putting it on a pedestal . . . unpretentious and completely approachable. --Julie Van Rosendaal, <i>Globe and Mail</i></p><p>Lush and eloquent . . . <i>Cedar and Salt</i> is among a new breed of regional Canadian explorations. Inextricable from its location, it's a snapshot of a specific food culture with expansive appeal all the same . . . The choice to structure the book by geography coupled with Acken's atmospheric photography gives readers a deeper sense of place. --Laura Brehaut, Postmedia</p><p>As lovers of food and photography, we can't think of a more inviting activity this season than to hunker down in the kitchen with the newly published, hyper-local Vancouver Island cookbook, <i>Cedar and Salt</i>. (Equally so, ogling and drooling over its pages while cozied up on a comfy chair.) --The Islandist</p><br>
