About Tim Pawsey

The Hired Belly (aka Tim Pawsey) has been covering the food and wine revolution for about 20 kilos (with about 15 kg alone thanks to the blossoming cuisine and wine culture of British Columbia, Canada).

He writes and  shoots his own images for weekly columns in the Vancouver Courier and North Shore News, and contributes monthly to WHERE Vancouver magazine, as well as to several other publications such as Taste magazine and Northwest Palate.

He also co-edits Zagat Vancouver (for which he wears a bullet-proof vest).

Tim is a frequent judge for competitions such as Vancouver Magazine International Wine Awards, The BC Lieutenant Governor’s Awards for Excellence in Wine, The BC Wine Awards, and others.

Tim has traveled to taste in many of the world’s leading wine regions, most recently in Portugal, Spain and New Zealand.
