| DINING |
Brix strengthens its
foundation
Like a bottle that’s been resting in the cellar, Brix has
blossomed into comfortable maturity, to emerge firmly as the
little place that could. And did. |
| ENTERTAINMENT |
kudos & kvetches
Two headlines on the front pages of the weekend Globe and
Mail and Vancouver Sun smacked a smile on our mugs early
Saturday morning, giving us hope that perhaps Canada can finally
be its own country. |
Legendary dancer keeps busy
lecturing, accepting awards
On the right-hand wall of Jeni LeGon’s apartment hallway
hangs a caricature of jazz legend Fats Waller, grinning impishly
as he tickles the ivories. |
Seven Days Ahead
It seems like ages since a decent Broadway production rolled
into town—that or our memories have just completely failed us,
which is more likely the case—even if it has already played
here before. |
| MOVIES |
Funny Shrek mocks its
history

studio with a couple of billionaires named Geffen and Spielberg,
it has been impossible to look at the feature-length cartoons
produced by DreamWorks without comparing them to the standard
that Katzenberg himself set when he worked at the Mouse House. |
| MUSIC |

Rich and dark, it seems to come from a place most singers can
only dream of accessing. |
