fter 20 years, my husband and I decided it was time to “refresh” our home. I decided this time to do it right and work with a designer. Ana’s professional background in the real estate field and her passion for photography helped us decide that she was the one we wanted to work with.

Sifto commissioned leading Canadian gastro chef Mike Shedden to create a perfect Canadian dish of salt-cured maple Canadian Atlantic salmon. This dish is best served cold on top of a dill crème fraîche with fried capers on French bread.
