SUMMARY:NEWCOMER KITCHEN — October 20
DESCRIPTION:Yakaneh Batata bel Batinjan ( يخنة بطاطا و باذنجان)\n				\n			\n				\n			\n				\n				Tabbouleh  تبولة‎‎\n				\n			\n				\n			\n				\n				M’a’krona (معكرونة)\n				\n		\n\n[beef] Dawood Basha (داوود باشا)\nMeatballs in tomato sauce; from Italian Polpette to Indian Kofta\, nearly every cuisine has some variation of this delicious comfort food staple. In Syria\, this dish inherited the name of an Ottoman governor (“pasha”\, or “basha” in Arabic\, which does not have the letter “p”)\, Daoud\, who administered Mt. Lebanon in the 18th century\, and reputedly had one of his chefs create this recipe especially for him. The dish is deceptively simple\, ground beef meatball seasoned with onion\, black pepper and allspice\, in a rich tomato & onion sauce\, served alongside Rez bel Shairieh (rice with vermicelli). \n[vegetarian] Yakaneh Batata bel Batinjan ( يخنة بطاطا و باذنجان)\nPotatoes and eggplants are popular (if relatively recent) ingredients in Mediterranean cooking\, whether in Greek Moussaka or Turkish Güveç. Yakaneh is general Syrian name used to describe hearty\, home-style stews; in this case one featuring batata (potato) and batinjan (eggplant) in a tomato & onion gravy\, with a hint of curry powder. \nTabbouleh (تبولة‎‎ )\nOriginally from the mountains of Syria and Lebanon\, tabbouleh has become one of the most popular salads in the Middle East. A fragrant herb salad of parsley and mint\, tomato and onion\, with a scattering of bulgur\, and seasoned with olive oil\, lemon\, and salt. \nM’a’krona (معكرونة)\nMacaroons\, macarons (and macaroni) share a complicated linguistic history\, with roots in medieval Arabic and Sicilian trade in semolina\, the same kind of hard durum wheat that these delicious cookies are made from. Akin to Greek loukoumades or lokma\, these sweets are made from from deep-fried dough fritters scented with anise and vanilla and soaked in a lemon-sugar syrup. \n$20 +HST \nMeals are available for pickup from The Depanneur\, 1033 College Street (between Dufferin & Dovercourt) from 6–7pm on Thursday\, Oct. 20\nfoodora sponsors FREE Delivery within 3km radius \nMeals go on sale on Tuesday at 7am.\nPlease indicate “PICKUP” or “DELIVERY” in the Order Notes at the Checkout. \n\nNewcomer Kitchen is a new project that invites groups of Syrian refugee women to use our kitchen to cook traditional Syrian dishes in a fun\, social setting. Meals are prepared and packaged\, and then sold online for pickup or delivery to pay for all the ingredients and provide an honorarium for the cooks. \nWe also offer 1 spot to help/hang out in the kitchen\, learn the recipes and join the ladies for family meal on Thursday afternoon.

SUMMARY:WORKSHOP: Discovering Indian Spices by Abeda Oturkar
DESCRIPTION:Indian spices are so much more than just “spicy” — in fact\, Indian food did not use chili peppers until after the 16th century\, when Portuguese traders brought them to their outpost at Goa. The ancient and rich culinary tradition of the South Asian subcontinent boasts an incredible array of spices that are used in many ways to create different flavours and textures\, as well as for their diverse and specific health benefits. \nIn this fun\, hands-on workshop\, chef and culinary historian Abeda Oturkar introduces you to some of the many spices and blends used in mixtures like garam masala\, and spice-centric dishes like curries and chutneys. You’ll learn more about the history and uses of common seed spices like coriander\, cumin and mustard\, as well as be introduced to other versatile spices like fenugreek and carom (ajwain) seeds. \nYou’ll learn 3 recipes that showcase the variety and versatility of these spices: Kadu Bharta\, a delicious savoury pumpkin mash from the province of Maharashtra state; easy & delicious gluten-free herb & spice crêpes similar to dosas\, made from brown gram flour (a type of chickpea); and a “superfood” coconut chutney that uses fresh coconut\, coriander root and jaggery\, an Indian raw sugar. \nWhile you enjoy your snacks\, Abeda can dig deeper into the history and healing properties of the spices you’ll be working with\, and each participant will leave with a their own personalized spice blend\, tailored to your palate and nutritional needs\, ready to spice up your next meal!\n—– \n$50 +HST \n—–\nAbeda Bihari Oturkar is a veteran food entrepreneur who is equally passionate about preparing delectable recipes and providing foods that improve well-being. Over more than 11 years her Dubai-based food business\, Spice & Aroma Alimentary Food\, grew to encompass a successful restaurant\, catering business\, cooking classes\, consulting and culinary tours. All of Abeda’s endeavours are informed by a lifelong study of food\, culinary history\, spices and nutrition. She’s now looking to bring this culinary adventure to Ontario. \n—–\nEvery Monday\, The Depanneur invites TO’s best culinary talents to lead fun\, hands-on workshops.

SUMMARY:NEWCOMER KITCHEN — October 13
DESCRIPTION:Harraq Esbaoo حراق اصبعو \n				\n			\n				\n			\n				\n				Salateh Malfouf سلطة ملفوف\n				\n			\n				\n			\n				\n				Barazek  برازق\n				\n		\n\n[chicken] El Rgaga (الرقاقه أو المكامير)\nEl Rgaga (aka Al Makameer) is a traditional dish from the countryside around Daraa\, a city in the southwest of Syria near the border with Jordan. When there is a big occasion with many guests\, groups of neighbourhood women get together and make a big batch. Many layers of thinly rolled dough are layered with onions caramelized in olive oil and chicken that has been poached in a spiced broth\, and then baked until golden and crispy on top. (The name translates as “the chip”\, probably referring to the crunchy top layer that absorbs the flavours of the dish). This dish was originally suggested by Majda\, so we reached out to Maryam and her daughter-in-law\, who are also from Daraa and experts in making it. \n[vegetarian] Harraq Esbaoo حراق اصبعو\nA very old and well-known dish in Syria\, the name translates “burning his finger”. The notion is that the dish is so delicious\, that diners can’t resist going for it before it cools\, so they burn their fingers. Lentils and fresh\, hand-cut pasta are cooked together with spices then mixed with onions\, coriander\, and a tamarind & pomegranate molasses dressing\, then garnished with crispy fried pita croutons\, caramelized onions\, fresh coriander and fresh pomegranate seeds. \nOk\, here’s my stab at Syrian humour:\nHow did the Syrian hipster burn his fingers?\n He ate his Harraq Esbaoo before it was cool.\n[#rimshot] \nSalateh Malfouf سلطة ملفوف\nA cool\, refreshing salad made of chopped cabbage\, diced tomatoes and pomegranate seeds\, dressed with olive oil\, garlic\, lemon juice\, sumac\, and fresh mint. \nBarazek برازق\nA crisp\, buttery cookie studded with pistachio pieces and covered in sesame seeds\, barazek are one of the most famous sweets of Damascus\, and a popular gift often brought by people visiting from Syria.\n—– \n$20 +HST \nMeals are available for pickup from The Depanneur\, 1033 College Street (between Dufferin & Dovercourt) from 6–7pm on Thursday\, Oct. 13\nfoodora sponsors FREE Delivery within 3km radius \nMeals go on sale on Tuesday at 7am.\nPlease indicate “PICKUP” or “DELIVERY” in the Order Notes at the Checkout. \n\nNewcomer Kitchen is a new project that invites groups of Syrian refugee women to use our kitchen to cook traditional Syrian dishes in a fun\, social setting.

SUMMARY:WORKSHOP: Syrian Home Cooking with Newcomer Kitchen
DESCRIPTION:An all-day cooking workshop on Thanksgiving Monday! \nBack in the spring\, The Depanneur reached out to the Syrian newcomer community and has been delighting in the delicious results ever since. Our Newcomer Kitchen project has become something of a local sensation\, serving up 50 meals of traditional Syrian home cooking every week. \nIn that time\, many people have expressed tremendous interest in learning some of these fabulous recipes\, so for this Thanksgiving Monday\, The Dep and Newcomer Kitchen are teaming up to offer a full-day\, hands-on workshop delving into a some of our most popular Syrian dishes. The class will be led by Rahaf Al Akbani\, one of Newcomer Kitchen’s coordinators\, along with 2 of our talented Syrian cooks\, and facilitated by The Dep’s Emily Zimmerman. \nThe class will cover a number of delicious and traditional Syrian recipes\, and will include a meze lunch and food to take home. \n— Morning —\nMutabal kousa  متبل كوسا \nSyrian home cooking is notable for its economy and minimal waste. The pulp scooped out of the middle of the zucchinis when they are cored to make Kousa Mahshi is not thrown out\, but rather cooked up and combined with tahini and lemon to transform it into a subtle and delicious meze dip akin to baba ganoush. \nKibbeh bel Senia  كبة بالصينية\nKibbeh is one of the most quintessential Syrian dishes\, made from a thick dough of bulgur (steamed\, dried and cracked whole wheat). Many types of kibbeh are individually stuffed\, shaped and fried\, which can be very labour intensive\, but this delicious vegetarian kibbeh is stuffed with a combination of walnuts\, potatoes\, onions\, tomatoes and pomegranate seeds\, garnished with pine nuts\, baked in a tray like brownies! \nSalateh Naameh  سلطة ناعمة\nThis essential Mediterranean salad can be found throughout the middle east\, with tomatoes\, cucumber\, and white onion are finely diced and seasoned with olive oil\, mint and lemon juice. \nKhabaz Saj (خبز الصاج)\nA simple fresh flatbread\, handmade on the traditional domed oven of the same name. \nLUNCH \n— Afternoon —\nKousa Mahshi  كوسا محشي\nStuffed zucchinis were cherished by the former Ottoman Empire\, and they made them popular from the Balkans to the Levant. Most popular are the beautiful\, pale green young marrow or summer squash\, but regular zucchinis work just fine. They are hollowed out with a special implement called a manakra (an apple corer works well in a pinch)\, and stuffed with a mix of ground halal beef and rice\, or a spiced rice mixture for a vegetarian option. \nNamoura  نمُّورة \nAn classic Syrian dessert\, a rich buttery semolina and yogurt cake\, garnished with almonds and drizzled with a orange-blossom infused syrup.\n—– \n$125 +HST \n—–\nNewcomer Kitchen is a new project that invites groups of Syrian refugee women to use our kitchen to cook traditional Syrian dishes in a fun\, social setting. Meals are prepared and packaged\, and then sold online for pickup or delivery to pay for all the ingredients and provide an honorarium for the cooks. The project now supports over 55 women and has paid out over $16\,000 directly into the community in only a few months. \nProceeds from the sale of meals goes directly to the newcomer cooks. However this does not cover the costs of the enormous amount of behind-the-scenes coordination required to keep this project going. You can support the Newcomer Kitchen project directly and our vision of expanding this model to support more women in more neighbourhoods! \nLearn more about the Newcomer Kitchen project. \n—–\nEvery Monday\, The Depanneur invites TO’s best culinary talents to lead fun\, hands-on workshops.

SUMMARY:DROP-IN DINNER: Jump Up Soup by Greg Couillard
DESCRIPTION:Despite being such an incredible food city\, Toronto does not have much in the way of unique\, signature dishes. I hereby nominate Chef Greg Couillard’s Jump Up Soup as one. For a time this was probably Toronto’s most famous dish\, inspired by the first Caribana Parade in 1967 – a riot of colour\, music and tropical heat that crashed through the stolid grey of downtown Toronto much like Greg’s cooking would do to the restaurant scene in the decades that followed. \nBased on a traditional Jamaican “pepper pot” soup\, this hearty\, spicy soup features Jamaican pumpkin\, sweet potato\, chayote\, sweet and hot peppers and the complex spices that are Greg’s claim to fame.\nServed with Coconut Rice\n$10 \nAdd Greg’s homemade jerk chicken thigh +$4\nAdd Mango & Jicama Coleslaw +$3 \n#vegan #glutenfree \n—-\nIt would not be hyperbole to suggest that Greg Couillard is one of the most influential chefs in Toronto’s culinary history. Through groundbreaking restaurants like The Parrot\, Stelle\, Avec\, Sarkis\, The Spice Room and many others\, his prescient embrace of this city’s multicultural flavours and ingredients revolutionized fine dining in Toronto\, and foreshadowed the eclectic\, international menus many now take for granted.

SUMMARY:NEWCOMER KITCHEN — October 6
DESCRIPTION:Fattoush فتوش\n				\n			\n				\n			\n				\n				Kaak bel Ajweh كعك بالعجوة\n				\n		\n\n[chicken] Mansaf منسف\nIn Canada\, the most famous meal for a big holiday family gathering like Thanksgiving would probably be a roast turkey with all the trimmings; in parts of the Middle East\, this would be Mansaf. In Jordan\, where many people consider this their national dish\, it is traditionally made with lamb and rice covered in a tangy white sauce made from keshk or jameed\, a kind of dried yogurt. It is served on huge platters (sometime with the lamb head as a dramatic centerpiece!)\, and guests gather around and reach into the communal dish together with their right hands. (Keeping one’s left hand behind one’s back is considered polite). Tonight’s dinner is a variation of Mansaf from Sweida\, in Southern Syria\, that is made with bulgur\, halal chicken\, a tangy\, rich yogurt sauce and a garnish of walnuts and parsley. \n[vegetarian] Kibbeh bel Fatar كبة بالفطر\nFor our vegetarian option\, there will be kibbeh – small fried torpedoes of seasoned bulgur dough stuffed with a mushroom\, onion and walnut filling – instead of chicken\, served along with the bulgur and mansaf yogurt sauce \nFattoush فتوش\nThis popular Levantine salad is made using toasted or fried pieces of pita bread combined with mixed greens\, fresh vegetables like tomatoes\, cucumber and radish\, but vary according to season and region. Mint and parsley lend a freshness and fragrance\, and dried sumac (the same staghorn sumac that grows here in Ontario) gives the olive oil-based dressing a distinctive tangy flavour. \nKaak bel Ajweh كعك بالعجوة\nDelicious\, date-stuffed cookies flavoured with vanilla\, anise\, sesame seeds and mahlab\, a spice derived from cherry kernels that imparts a lovely marzipan aroma. These cookies are popular in Lebanon around Easter\, where they are known as “Crown” cookies\, their ring shape are thought to Jesus’ crown of thorns. \n$20 +HST \nMeals are available for pickup from The Depanneur\, 1033 College Street (between Dufferin & Dovercourt) from 6–7pm on Thursday\, Oct. 6\nfoodora sponsors FREE Delivery within 3km radius \nMeals go on sale on Tuesday at 7am.\nPlease indicate “PICKUP” or “DELIVERY” in the Order Notes at the Checkout. \n\nNewcomer Kitchen is a new project that invites groups of Syrian refugee women to use our kitchen to cook traditional Syrian dishes in a fun\, social setting. Meals are prepared and packaged\, and then sold online for pickup or delivery to pay for all the ingredients and provide an honorarium for the cooks. \nWe also offer 1 spot to help/hang out in the kitchen\, learn the recipes and join the ladies for family meal on Thursday afternoon. We are asking for a $50 donation for this\, which will go to topping up the $ we have to share with the cooks. This is available for purchase online\, on a first-come\, first-served basis. \nProceeds from the sale of meals goes directly to the newcomer cooks. However this does not cover the costs of the enormous amount of behind-the-scenes coordination required to keep this project going. You can support the Newcomer Kitchen project directly and our vision of expanding this model to support more women in more neighbourhoods! \nSupport the Newcomer Kitchen’s FundRazr campaign.\nHelp us take this idea into any restaurant kitchen\, in any city in the world! \nLearn more about the Newcomer Kitchen project.

SUMMARY:TABLE TALK: Abeda Oturkar
DESCRIPTION:A veteran food entrepreneur and food historian\, Abeda will be talking about legacy of the spice trade and its influence on culinary history. \n“Spice — the very word conjures up visions of exotic places and tastes. For a very long time spices were rare and exotic\, sought in far-flung parts of Asia\, Africa\, and South America for their culinary and medicinal value. Today in North America — a place itself discovered in the quest for spices — we now have all the flavours of the world at our fingertips. I am forever fascinated by the intricate and interwoven stories of these culinary treasures and their journeys that connect so many cultures. Our collective love affair with spices continues to tie us all together.”\n— Abeda Oturkar \n—–\n\nDinner by Len Senater\nTonight I’ll be making a personal favourite: Gado Gado\, whose fresh + spicy\, cool + warm combinations are perfect for a summer dinner\, and because Indonesian cuisine is so wrapped up in the history of the spice trade. This dish features cool fresh vegetables like cucumbers\, tomatoes and bean sprouts\, with warm\, cooked veggies like long beans\, blanched cabbage and turmeric-tinted potatoes\, blanketed in a rich\, spicy-sweet peanut sauce\, and garnished with tofu cubes\, hard boiled eggs (optional)\, crispy shallots and prawn crackers. On the side\, I’ll be serving a bit of tangy-spicy Acar Awak\, a Nonya/Malay pickle-cum-chutney.\n#GF #vegetarian #vegan options available \nFor dessert\, another legacy of the global spice trade: Speculaas ice cream! Speculaas is a type of heavily spiced shortcrust biscuit\, akin to a gingerbread\, traditionally made in the Netherlands. The Dutch\, whose colonization of Indonesia for its spices via The Dutch East India Company\, transformed the world in many ways—the first multinational corporation\, the first company to issue stock\, and was the first megacorporation\, possessing quasi-governmental powers\, including the ability to wage war\, negotiate treaties\, coin money\, and establish colonial settlements.\n$5 \n—– \nDoors open at 6pm\, talk starts at 7pm\nincludes dinner and coffee or tea.\n$20 (+HST) \n—–\nAbeda Oturkar is a veteran food entrepreneur who is equally passionate about preparing delectable recipes and providing foods that improve well-being. Over more than 11 years her Dubai-based food business\, Spice & Aroma\, grew to encompass a successful restaurant\, catering business\, cooking classes\, consulting and culinary tours. All of Abeda’s endeavours are informed by a lifelong study of food\, culinary history\, spices and nutrition. She’s now looking to bring this culinary adventure to Ontario. \n—–\nLen Senater is the founder and proprietor of The Depanneur\, who happily cooks for his friends and neighbours. \n—–\nDepanneur invites a local food personality to talk about something that interests them while Dep founder Len Senater cooks dinner for everyone. \nFind out more on Table Talks at The Depanneur\nhttp://staging.thedepanneur.ca/drop-in-dinners/table-talk/

SUMMARY:SUPPER CLUB: Provechito by Matt Lazin
DESCRIPTION:In Mexico\, it is customary to say “provecho” before starting a meal\, from the word aprovechar\, which means “to make the most of it.” A deeper sense of provecho is expressing the hope that something contributes to one’s health or well-being; a gracious\, inclusive\, social gesture. Mexican Spanish often uses diminutive suffixes like -ito/ita to indicate informality and affection. And so provecho becomes “provechito” – a casual ‘bon appetit’ for your friends\, which pretty much sums up the spirit of this Mexican-inspired vegetarian meal — featuring 2 homemade margaritas! — by bartender-foodie Matt Lazin.\n—– \nGuacamole Two Ways\nTwo guacs: a traditional simple avocado guacamole\, plus Matt’s own spicy guac with extra cilantro\, red onion and toasted spices. Served with 2 kinds of tostadas\, chipotle and jalapeno. \n¡Margaritas!\nClassic salt-rimmed fresh lime margaritas on the rocks \nJicama Salad\nThe crisp\, slightly sweet\, water-chestnut like texture of jicama adds a satisfying crunch to a fresh salad of romaine lettuce\, tomatoes\, bell peppers\, radish & pepitas\, accented by a balsamic-lime-cumin vinaigrette. \nEl Plato Principal\nSlow simmered red & black kidney beans with Mexican chiles\, coriander & cumin\, alongside a seasoned rice\, garnished with sauteed sweet onions\, cilantro and lime. Side dishes include corn niblets with grilled fresh pineapple & peas tossed in a butter sauce\, sauteed organic rainbow chard with garlic — grown by Matt himself! — plus tomatillo salsa verde & sour cream. \n¡Margaritas!\nDelicious ice-cold mango margaritas \nHelados\nPremium chocolate and vanilla bean ice creams\, with a spicy Mayan chocolate sauce & homemade berry coulis.\n—– \n$50 +HST \n—–\nMatt Lazin first learned cooking from his grandmother at a young age\, but it wasn’t until he started working in the restaurant/catering industry that his ideas of what food could and should be really expanded. The last 8 or so years working as a bartender and in catering have broadened his culinary horizons\, emphasizing the diversity\, quality and originality in the world of food. Combined with a life-long interest in other cultures & countries has led to and ongoing exploration of foods from around the world\, with Mexican/Latin cuisines being among his favourites. A shift towards vegetarianism over the last 2+ years has also added new knowledge and techniques in the kitchen\, and he hopes to bring it all together for a great night of food & cocktails. \n—–\nEvery weekend The Depanneur invites a guest chef to host a fun\, informal dinner party. \nLearn more about the Rusholme Park Supper Club\nhttp://staging.thedepanneur.ca/supper-club/

SUMMARY:DROP-IN DINNER: Parsi Cuisine of Bombay by Abeda Oturkar
DESCRIPTION:Over 800 years ago\, communities of Zoroastrian Persians migrated from Iran and settled along India’s West coast. Over time\, they adopted many of the customs\, dress\, and ingredients of their new home\, but they also retained some of their Persian heritage\, notably in their food. These influences became an integral part of the fabric of Bombay’s remarkable culinary traditions. \nThe Parsi community flourished in colonial India\, and they embraced many European influences which can also be found in their cuisine. They typically favour bread over chapatti or paratha and will often add eggs or potato to their dishes. Parsi flavours strive to balance a combination of methoo (sweet) and khatoo (acidic)\, so cooking with fruit is common\, as is in Persian cooking. \nAbeda Oturkar‘s menu selects some favourite Parsi dishes from her many years eating in Bombay\, some not easy to find in Toronto\, so drop-in for a unique treat.\n—– \nChutney Eada\nCrispy egg patties stuffed with a green coconut-coriander chutney\, with tangy tomato sauce.\n$6 \nMarghi ma Jardaloo\nA delicious dish of halal chicken cooked with apricots in sweet & tangy jaggery (raw sugar) and vinegar sauce\, topped with crispy shoestring potatoes\, and served with Beetroot Radish Kuchumber (chopped salad) and a thick slice of whole wheat bread.\n$12 \n#vegetarian option: Butternut squash & eddoe (a tropical potato-like tuber) in the same sweet & tangy apricot sauce. \nMeetho Sev\nSweet\, cardamom-infused vermicelli noodles topped with nuts and dry fruits\, served with a dollop of cool yogurt enriched with fresh cream.\n$6 \n#Vegetarian & #GF options available\n—— \nAbeda Oturkar is a veteran food entrepreneur who is equally passionate about preparing delectable recipes and providing foods that improve well-being. Over more than 11 years her Dubai-based food business\, Spice & Aroma\, grew to encompass a successful restaurant\, catering business\, cooking classes\, consulting and culinary tours. All of Abeda’s endeavours are informed by a lifelong study of food\, culinary history\, spices and nutrition. She’s now looking to bring this culinary adventure to Ontario.\n—– \nEvery Friday The Depanneur is an ‘open mic’ night for culinary talent in TO\, where we invite guest cooks\, amateur or professional\, to come and make their favourite dishes.

SUMMARY:DROP-IN DINNER: Dutch Comfort Food by BorrelTO
DESCRIPTION:Totally stoked to have Justin Go and Alison Broverman back at The Dep serving up authentic Dutch snacks and comfort food. Their menu embodies the concept of “gezellig”— a Dutch word that encompasses all things cozy and convivial — a big part of what the The Dep is all about.\n \nBitterballen are tasty little deep-fried balls consisting of either minced beef or vegetables cooked in a savoury roux and served with a special Zaanse mustard from the North of Holland. Beef\, Vegetarian.\n$7\n \nKrokets have a minced filling in a savoury roux\, deep-fried into an oblong shape\, and served on rye bread – the traditional method is to mash the kroket and spread the filling on the bread (it might sound weird\, but trust us on this one). Chicken. Served with home-seasoned paprika chips.\n$7\n\nThe frikandel is Holland’s answer to the hotdog – a homemade sausage made of a blend of ground beef\, pork and chicken\, and served on a bun with onions\, mayonnaise and curried ketchup. Served with home-seasoned paprika chips.\n$7\n\nWe’re pleased to introduce kaassoufflé to the menu. This tasty snack consists of melted Gouda cheese inside a thin puff pastry wrap which is breaded and then\, you guessed it\, deep-fried.\n$7\n\nTheir main dish is andijviestamppot\, a delicious combination of mashed potatoes and escarole and served with smoked sausage\, homemade bacon lardons and gravy; a lighter\, early fall version of boerenkool traditionally made with kale. We’ll also have a few Dutch-style meatballs on hand as an alternative to sausage.\n$9\, vegetarian: $8\n\nFor dessert\, we’re proud to have partnered with the folks at Ed’s Real Scoop to bring you speculaas ice cream. Inspired by the popular Dutch spiced cookie\, the ice cream is flavoured similarly and contains chunks of speculaas.\n$6\n \nPRIX FIXE SPECIAL:\nChoice of:\nBitterballen -or- Kroket -or- Frikandel –or- Kaassoufflé\n+\nAndijviestamppot\n+\nSpeculaas ice cream\n$20\n(eat-in only)\n——–\n\nJustin Go began cooking Dutch food years ago for his friends at his annual “Holland Day in Canada” (a completely made-up holiday) party that he would host with his wife\, Alison Broverman in their home. He was pleasantly surprised when\, after tasting boerenkool for the first time\, his friends began clamouring for it every year\, and he wondered if there might be even more of an audience for Dutch food in Toronto. In early 2014\, he finally decided to find out and the pop-up Borrel was born. After operating as a weekly pop-up food event at The Ossington bar for eight months\, Justin and Alison have since successfully brought Borrel to bars and venues all over Toronto\, including the cozy Cloak & Dagger Pub\, the raucous Feast in the East\,Pedestrian Sundays in Kensington Market\, and more.\n\n\n\n\nTwitter: @BorrelTO | Instagram: BorrelTO\nhttps://borreltoronto.wordpress.com/ \n—–\nEvery Friday The Depanneur is an ‘open mic’ night for culinary talent in TO\, where we invite guest cooks\, amateur or professional\, to come and make their favourite dishes.
