Tunisian cuisine features all the hallmarks of delicious North African food: complex spices\, lush combinations of fruit and meat\, Mediterranean ingredients and a hint of French colonial influence. Tagines\, the flavourful stews that range from Morocco to Egypt\, get their name from the characteristic conical dishes of the same name that they are most often cooked in.\n—– \nSalade Mechouia\nHot and sweet peppers cooked until meltingly tender\, stewed with tomatoes\, onions\, garlic\, capers and black olives\, garnished with tuna\, sliced eggs and extra virgin olive oil; with fresh pita for mopping up all the deliciousness. \nChicken Tagine with Preserved Lemons & Olives\nDali’s chicken tagine combines the floral tartness of his homemade preserved lemons\, the rich vegetal notes of cracked green olives and the warm\, spicy flavours of ginger and saffron to great effect; served with fluffy couscous.\n– or –\nVegetable Tagine\nA North African classic\, a fragrant stew of zucchini\, pumpkin\, onions\, garlic\, white beets and chickpeas in a lightly spiced tomato broth; served with fluffy couscous. #vegan \nKhobzet Hwé (Breeze Cake)\nThe simplicity and comfort of no-bake ‘refrigerator’ cakes appeals even in places where refrigeration was not necessarily common. Much traditional Middle Eastern architecture was cleverly designed to maximize airflow and bring in cool drafts. This classic Tunisian dessert of crumbled butter biscuits drizzled with strong coffee and layered with rich buttercream and almonds evokes a tiramisu\, and gets its whimsical name from the cool\, breezy spots where the cake would be left to chill.\n—– \nContains eggs\, wheat\, dairy\, nuts \nChicken\, Vegetarian\, or 1/2+1/2\nTunisian Picnic for 2 $59 • for 4 $109 • for 6 $159 \nTHIS EVENT IS SOLD OUT\nPICKUP IS WED 6-7PM AT THE BENTWAY\nTICKETS ARE AVAILABLE FOR ALL OUR OTHER BENTWAY EVENTS\n\nPay It Forward\nAt check out\, you will be given the opportunity to either contribute towards a supplemental Pay It Forward meal.

Home of the original “Spice Islands”\, Indonesia has been a culinary destination for centuries\, sharing spices like nutmeg and clove with the rest of the world while absorbing and reimagining Indian\, Chinese\, Arabic\, Thai and Dutch influences. Indonesian food boasts many unique flavours\, textures and ingredients worth exploring\, and tonight Chef Elita of NaiNai Noodles shares a few distinctive and authentic Indonesian recipes.\n—– \nGado Gado\nAn addictive Indonesian salad; deceptively simply\, infinitely variable\, always delicious. A mix of veggies like long green beans\, lettuce\, sweet corn and bean sprouts\, dressed in a complex and spicy peanut sauce. \nJagung Bakar\nThis popular Indonesian street food — grilled corn with a sweet & spicy chili glaze — complete the picnic mood. \nBeef Rendang\nIn a 2011 online poll held by CNN International\, rendang was chosen as the number one dish of the ‘World’s 50 Most Delicious Foods’. Rendang is a style of curry-like stew popular in Sumatra and Malaysia\, characterized by a long slow cooking in coconut milk such that the sugars caramelize and the liquid largely evaporates\, making the sauce relatively dry. The spices used in rendang\, lemongrass\, garlic\, shallot\, ginger and galangal\, have antimicrobial properties and serve as natural preservatives. A popular but labour-intensive dish\, it’s often served on special occasions.\n-or-\nTempeh Satay\nTempeh is a denser\, more toothsome relative of tofu native to Indonesia. Made from fermented whole soybeans\, here it is marinated in a sweet soy glaze and cooked on an open flame grill; comes with peanut sauce\, sliced shallots and chopped chilies. \nBoth mains are served with jasmine rice\, jackfruit curry\, mixed vegetable stir fry and special green chili sambal. \nSingkong Lumer\nSweet cassava pudding made from grated cassava cooked with palm sugar\, pandan leaf and topped with creamy coconut milk sauce\n—– \nContains peanuts\, soy \nBeef\, Vegetarian\, or 1/2+1/2\nIndonesian Picnic for 2 $59 • for 4 $109 • for 6 $159 \nTHIS EVENT IS SOLD OUT!\nORDERING FOR THIS EVENT IS NOW CLOSED.

Her Mother continued the restaurant business with Elita at her hip. Those indelible experiences have inspired Elita to bring her own authentic Indonesian meals to Toronto. As a food entrepreneur\, she has catered for the Indonesian embassy and has recently launched NaiNai Noodles\, an Indonesian noodle bar and take out restaurant on King St. W.\nIG @nainai.noodles | nainainoodles.com \n\n

SUMMARY:PICK UP DINNER: From Volta With Love by Marc Kusitor
DESCRIPTION:Pre-order online until TUE Jun 15\, 10pm\nPick up on WED Jun 16\, 6-7:30pm\nIn the heart of Ghana\, the White Volta and Black Volta rivers meet to form Lake Volta — where the construction of the Akosombo Dam in 1965 created the largest reservoir in the world — and the intersection of many overlapping ancient and modern West Africa cultures. Culinary exchange has been going on for centuries; okra\, cowpeas\, and rice migrating to North America with the enslaved\, corn\, tomatoes and chiles crossing back to become national staples. \nA continuation and evolution of that exchange\, this dinner is inspired by the traditional dishes from the Volta region in Northern Ghana\, brought to Canada by Marc Kusitor’s father\, and then reimagined by this talented young chef as part of his contemporary repertoire. \nHappy Father’s Day\, from Volta\, with love.\n—— \nGhanian Chop Salad\nMixed greens with pickled okra\, cherry tomato\, shaved carrots and onion\, with a coconut salad cream; a play on the typical salad you would receive with a meal at a chop bar (roadside restaurant) in Northern Ghana where okro (okra) is a staple. \nBlack Star Jollof \nJollof is the quintessential West African rice dish\, a spicy tomato-based pilaf that is the ancestor of American classics like Jambalaya and Hoppin’ John. This Ghanian-style jollof\, spiked with umami-packed African smoked crayfish powder\, is paired with tender beef stewed in tomato\, ginger\, African chilli peppers\, and various aromatics.

SUMMARY:PICK-UP DINNER: Kintsugi by Stuart Sakai
DESCRIPTION:Pre-order online until TUE Jun 8\, 10pm\nPick up on WED Jun 9\, 6-7:30pm\nKintsugi is a Japanese tradition of repairing broken pottery using lacquer mixed with powdered gold; as a philosophy\, it treats damage and repair as part of the integral history of an object\, its imperfections something to be celebrated rather than hidden. Creating familiar food in a foreign land can be similar\, filling the gaps and memories with a mix of creativity and available ingredients\, creating something new in the process.  \nStuart Sakai has a deep and abiding interest in traditional Japanese cuisine\, from fermenting his own pickles to delving into the myriad forms of sake. Tonight’s menu is a mix of very traditional elements\, some more modern interpretations\, and an idiosyncratic dish that from Stuart’s dad who forged his own Japanese-inspired comfort food from ingredients that could be found here.\n—— \nTsukemono\nLiterally “pickled things”\, tsukemono are Japanese preserved vegetables served as a drinking snack\, side dish\, garnish\, or even sometimes as a dedicated course as part of a Japanese tea ceremony. Stuart has long been fascinated by the astonishing range of Japanese pickles (in Japan there are entire stores dedicated to nothing but pickles)\, and makes these cucumber nukazuke pickles from scratch by quickly fermenting them in salted rice bran overnight. \nKinpira Gobo\nA very traditional dish\, kinpira (to sauté/simmer) gobo (burdock root) is made with a julienne of  of carrot and burdock root cooked with a lightly sweet blend of soy sauce\, sake\, and mirin\, and sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds.  \nTuna & Tofu\nThis family recipe is made from a mix of ingredients from different cultures\, typical of  immigrant cuisines that have to be resourceful with what is at their disposal. This dish sits somewhere between Japanese nikudofu (braised tofu) and Chinese mapo tofu with maybe a touch of Canadian tuna casserole in the mix. It features tuna\, silken tofu\, funyu (Chinese fermented tofu)\, shoyu\, ginger\, and a generous topping of green onions; served with short grain white rice.\nAlso available #vegan: braised tofu with a mix of mushrooms and vegetables  \nAmazake Rhubarb Parfait\nA mix of local and exotic\, modern and traditional\, this light and creamy parfait is based on amazake\, a sweet\, low-alcohol Japanese drink made from rice fermented with koji\, the same mold that produces miso\, soy sauce\, and sake. It is seasoned with lilac honey and strawberries macerated in a sake and ume (Japanese plum) syrup\, with a dollop of rhubarb jam and a buckwheat crumble for crunch.\n—— \nTuna\, Vegetarian\, or 1/2+1/2\nJapanese Dinner — $48 for 2  •  $90 for 4 \nORDERING FOR THIS EVENT IS NOW CLOSED. PICKUP IS WED 6-7:30PM\nStuart Sakai is the owner/operator of Sakai Bar – an intimate sake-focused restaurant with a focus on Japanese country cuisine through a contemporary lens.  He is a forth generation Japanese Canadian with 15 years of restaurant experience with a strong focus on Sake and many other interests that intersect with Japan crafts and country living. | @sakaibarto \n\n

SUMMARY:COOKING CLASS (ZOOM): Mastering the Instant Pot by Carole Nelson Brown
DESCRIPTION:Register by SUN May 23\nPressure cooking\, by its very nature\, is a faster and healthier way to prepare foods. Nutrients are preserved at much higher rates than other\, conventional cooking methods\, flavours are intensified and\, again\, cooking time can be reduced by up to 70%. Throw in the fact that you are using less energy\, wasting less water and how can you go wrong? \nUnfortunately\, many of us have scary memories of our grandmother’s stove-top pressure cookers\, hissing\, spitting and rattling away like a time bomb\, threatening to blow up at any moment. Well\, today we are lucky enough to have access to a new generation of electric pressure cookers that are safe\, easy to use\, and can save you hours in the kitchen. \nPopular food blogger\, photographer and stylist Carole Nelson Browne will show you how can use this amazing kitchen time-saver to prepare some of the most popular pressure cooker dishes. She will cover all the fundamentals of using an electric pressure cookers\, answer question\, and walk you through making a delicious Mushroom Risotto — that cooks in 6 minutes! — as well as demonstrate a number of different Instant Pot techniques used for recipes like Potato Leek Soup\, White Bean Salad\, and Gingerbread Pudding. \nCarole will be featuring the Instant Pot\, a Canadian pressure cooker that also functions as a rice cooker\, a slow cooker\, a yogurt maker\, steamer and is amazing with all manner of pulses\, grains and dried beans\, but the recipes and techniques are all applicable to any other brand of electric pressure cooker/multi-cooker as well! You’ll have a chance to ask questions\, discuss what kinds of recipes are best suited to pressure cooking\, and share all kinds of handy kitchen tips and tricks. \nTUE May 25  |  5:30-7pm\n$45 +HST per person/device \nTICKETS CAN BE PURCHASED BELOW\nup to 48hr prior to the class \nA Zoom link along with a full list of ingredients and equipment will be sent to you 2 days before class. \n\nCarole Nelson Brown‘s passions for food and her family —although not necessarily in that order — are legendary. From her love of blogging in The Yum Yum Factor\, including showcasing delicious and unique ethnic and everyday recipes as well as reviewing local restaurants and other exciting edible happenings in Toronto and beyond\, teaching cooking classes\, completing a personal challenge of never repeating the same recipe twice for a full year (which proved easier said than done!) to developing recipes for brands\, Carole has found her niche in the food world by drawing on her vast travel experience and food knowledge for inspiration as well as the daily ups and downs of her life for humour. \n\nWant to know more about our online classes?

SUMMARY:VICTORIA DAY: Don Chingon Birria Pop Up
DESCRIPTION:1 DAY ONLY! Victoria Day — MON May 24 — 11am – 4pm\nBirria is the fast-rising star of the taco world here in North America\, but it’s been a long time favourite in Mexico. Due to the long\, slow cooking it is traditionally reserved for special occasions\, but is rapidly becoming a brunch staple all over the country. \nBirria de res is slow-cooked beef with chilis\, tomato\, garlic\, onion\, and a mix of spices unique to whoever is making it. It’s served with a side of consommé\, a rich broth made from the braising liquid. The tender pulled beef is stuffed into fresh tortillas\, griddled and then dunked in a bowl of the consommé when eating – messy & delicious! Ours is served with house salsa for those who like a little extra spice\, and a few classic garnishes. \nWALK UP – MON May 24\, 11am-4pm\nBirria Combo $17\n3 tacos + consommé + house salsa + drink \n\nPRE-ORDER – Until SUN 6pm\nFor 2 $33 • For 4 $65\nPRE-ORDERING FOR THIS EVENT IS NOW CLOSED. PICK UP MON 11-4PM\n\nDon Chingon is new Mexican brunch residency at The Depanneur; two veteran professional chefs bring you the magic trinity of Mexican comfort food — Tacos\, Tortas\, & Tamales — with a TO brunch twist. Aaron Okada\, a talented local chef with nearly 15 years in some of Toronto’s top kitchens\, has joined forces with Oskar Diaz from Tampico\, Mexico (where he ran several restaurants\, and his mom ran a tamale business with over 35 flavours of tamales!) to create Don Chingon\, an exciting new Mexican weekend brunch concept on Saturdays & Sundays at The Depanneur. A trio of pre-orderable Brunch Boxes for 2 or 4 people complements a walk-up menu of Tacos\, Tortas\, and Tamales\, along with a selection of authentic Mexican snacks\, drinks\, and their signature Huasteca Hot Sauce. \n\n
