Ken Collura has been around the wine scene for many years. His bio is rather impressive: a syndicated columnist for over five years (printed on the east coast in Tampa and Richmond and in Taos, NM.,) and writes for the trade magazines Cheers (on the Editorial Advisory Board) and Sante on a regular basis. Prior to moving to Portland, he was head sommelier for nine years at the restaurant with the world's largest wine list, Bernie's Steak House in Tampa, which carried over a half million bottles in stock. He is currently sommelier at Andina, the Peruvian restaurant in Portland
OH MAN!!!! I think I just ….. uh…… wow. That looks SO AMAZING! Thanks Ken!

I love the Granville Market. It has such a unique character. You really captured it. Have to get to Vancouver soon.
I’ve been to different public markets in the states and in Canada, and the Granville Market is definitely the best. The selection of items is unbelievable. I always make it a point to stop there when I’m in Vancouver.
It’s not called Granville Market, it is called Granville Island Public Market or just Granville Island Market (for short)… just FYI… I am from Vancouver and this is a common mistake. There is a Granville Street as well and it is confusing if you do not use the correct name for the market.
Thanks for the correction! I’ll update the title
