Corbin’s passion for food and family runs deep. Raised on a farm
outside of Edmonton, Alberta, one of his earliest memories is the
smell of baking bread in his grandmother’s kitchen. With 30 years
of culinary experience, Corbin has worked at some of the world’s
largest hotels and was the host of Food Networks shows such as
Dinner Party Wars, Restaurant Takeover, and The Incredible Food
Race. He is also an active member of the Canadian Federation of
Chefs and Cooks, an ambassador for KitchenAid, and volunteers for
organizations including the Canadian Cancer Society, the Heart and
Stroke Foundation of Canada, and Osteoporosis Canada. His first
cookbook,
In Good Company, celebrates his philosophy of food, fun, and
family. He currently lives in Toronto with his wife and three sons.
Karen Geier is a Toronto-based writer and food enthusiast. When
she’s not working on fermentation and bread experiments in her
urban kitchen, Karen writes for media outlets like The Guardian and
corporate clients. With Corbin, Karen has written over 100 articles
on cooking.
"The book is well structured, includes ready-made menus for various
occasions, and is generously illustrated, with many photos of
Tomaszeski and his inspiring dishes. Recipes are easy to follow,
highlight dishes that can be prepared ahead of time, and include
suggestions for variations with additional ingredients or
substitutions. Tomaszeski reminds readers that the moment of
serving a dish and sharing food with guests is more important than
a broken plate, misread recipe, or any number of goofs made along
the way. He’s good company in the kitchen indeed."
