Why restaurants?
We grew up as a family of five who loved dining out. We’d go out weekly on a Saturday or Sunday night from when we were quite young, and we’d always spend a long time debating where to go. Our parents also entertained regularly, and so hospitality is something that has been and is very much instilled in us.
What’s your favourite restaurant or group of restaurants (besides your own)?
It’s ever changing! Depending on the occasion, A Wong, Brasserie Zedel and The Heron (for authentic Thai). There are a number of groups I have a huge amount of respect for such as Corbin & King and Hawksmoor, and I feel I am constantly learning from them.

Our daughter will turn 2 in January and has no experience wearing a mask yet. We follow public health policies to a T and respect the overall good they bring; however, I can’t help but worry about what might happen if my daughter refuses to keep it on for the duration of the flight. How strict are airlines being? What can I do to prepare?

As the pandemic continues, We should all have plenty of time to read this winter, he writes. Here are some books I recommend for parents. Some are newer than others, but they are all good reads. It should be noted that Thompson himself is a fairly prolific author, having written more than 60 columns on all sorts of issues parents face. Among the most shared are Helping Kids Feel Secure from 2016, Teen Tune-Up from 2014 and 2012 s Unleash the Monster, a treatise on relieving childhood constipation. Since 2008, his work has appeared in nearly every issue of
