I enjoyed tasting some of the beverages and savoury items today at a preview social for the holiday pop-up at the The Capilano Tea House in Gastown. Kicking off tomorrow is 12 days of local which runs daily through to December 23rd, you will have a chance to see some local food and beverage companies sell their products which all make great holiday gifts.
