A dazzling collection of more than 70 chef-tested recipes, accompanied by mouth-watering photography, Edmonton Cooks is a celebration of the city's best.

Leanne Brown is a writer and avid home cook born and raised in Edmonton but currently living in New York City. She believes everyone deserves to eat good food every day and that cooking is the key. Most recently she wrote the award-winning, best-selling, Good and Cheap, a cookbook of appealing, beautiful food for very low incomes. She has been delighted by cooking and baking ever since she realized that they were the closest things we have to magic. Tina Faiz loves to ask questions and loves to eat. It's no wonder this award-winning journalist's insatiable curiosity (and appetite) helps her unearth stories about food as well as politics, design, art, and culture for newspapers and magazines across the country, including the Edmonton Journal, Calgary Herald, National Post, Ottawa Citizen, Vancouver Sun, and Montreal Gazette, among others, and in a regular food column for CBC Radio. She's Western Living magazine's former Edmonton Editor and regularly judges food competitions in the city. When she's not writing, she is co-owner and strategist at Big Pixel Creative, helping clients use digital communications for social good.
