Our mission is to legitimize food and beverage as a respected and worthwhile career while highlighting the value it brings to our communities. Join ITW for exciting guest interviews, heart warming bromance, ignorant pontification and intermittent glimmers of wisdom. Bon Apetit!

Some keen observers might have noticed a missing component in our podcast over the past few months. And no, before you say it, not our social media presence... that's always been bad!!
I'm referring of course to the Athos to our Three Musketeers, the Dusty Bottoms to our Three Amigos, the Larry to our Threes Stooges, Mr. Andrew Johnson.
In January, after years of pondering, AJ found the courage to strike out on his own and opened Bicycle Pizza, a cross between New York and California style with little Mediterranean flair thrown in for good measure.
His partner and better half (the marketing lady) were able to turn the traditional restaurant service model on its head. Operating out of Beauregard Café & Provisions in Brentwood Bay BC, the two are running a "ghost" kitchen which is a good service business that serves customers exclusively by online food ordering. It is a separate food vendor entity that operates out of an existing restaurant's kitchen.
As hard as it was for him to take a step back from the podcast, it was well warranted. He's been busy! But, never say never. The ITW crew is like a bad mafia movie stereotype in the just when you thought you were out, we pull you back in!
Thanks for all the laughs AJ. You're more than welcome to join us any time!
