Ottawa Foodies

I am a former chef/restaurantuer in the Ottawa area & self proclaimed foodie. Now I have a new career which is great but miss all that goes with the cooking and creating, that being the gossip, new ideas, events, etc.. Haha.
Because of my newly found free time I am also looking for ways to continue to be involved in the food scene in the city, food events, organizations, etc.. So I am finding this site great to help keep me in the loop until I start my next venture.
Thanks everyone.
