St. Lawrence Market (south side)

November 8, 2012 ~ 7pm-10pm

If any of you already do, or have considered, giving back to your communities, the St. Lawrence Mmmarket Night promises to be a wonderful opportunity to do so.

A food event that showcases all of the great food at the St Lawrence Market and at the same time contributes to FoodShare Toronto.  50% of the ticket price ($50) will go to helping FoodShare deliver healthy food and build food literacy in Toronto communities and guests will receive tax receipts for $25 for their purchase.

This will be my first time attending and their website says “to expect to taste diverse flavours and foods throughout the entire south building”. Their partner Millstreet Brewery will be on hand as well as their merchant, Wine Country Merchants. Guests will be treated to a performance by Art Battle and have the opportunity to meet renowned Chef David Adjey.  If you watch the Food Network or HGTV you will have seen the critically acclaimed, Canadian chef, television personality and award-winning author at his best on Restaurant Makeover, or possibly Iron Chef America.  He also won an award for his cookbook “Deconstructing the Dish: Inspirations for Modern-Day Cuisine” which I may just have to add to my collection.

Nearly 50 stalls will be offering their specialties for your tasting pleasure.  50 tastings for $50!  Is there a better food event than that out there that gives 50% of the proceeds back to the community?  That’s where I’m going to be!  Maybe I’ll even get to meet the famous Chef David Adjey?  Or get close enough to snap a picture.

What a wonderful opportunity to contribute to the community and sample great food in an entertaining environment.   Review to follow.
