SUMMARY:PICK-UP DINNER: Guyanese Oxtail Pepperpot by Eshwar Sarwan
DESCRIPTION:Pre-order online until TUE Nov 3\, 10pm\nPick up on WED Nov 4\, 6-7:30pm\nGuyana is a country of many identities. As the only country in South America where English is the first language\, a legacy of British colonial rule\, it often identifies mores closely to its Caribbean neighbours to the north. Like many ex-British colonies in the region\, the culture — and the cuisine — is a mix of many influences: indigenous peoples\, African slavery\, Indian & Chinese indentured labourers\, English institutions and the legacies of global trade. \nChef Eshwar “Chefwar” Sarwan creatively combines these inspirations to craft a cuisine rooted in Guyanese tradition\, inspired by the flavours of the Caribbean\, and elevated by his classically-trained French culinary technique.\n—– \nBaiganee\nThese crispy eggplant fritters are a take on a popular traditional Guyanese street food. Moist eggplant in a savoury golden batter made from yellow split pea flour\, chickpea flour & breadfruit flour; served with a Chefwan’s signature homemade Tamarind hot sauce. #vegan #GF \nOxtail Pepperpot\nTraditional Guyanese pepperpot is usually reserved for special occasions because it take so long to cook\, and so is often eaten during the Christmas holiday season in Guyana. A long\, slow\, flavourful braise\, it is notable for its use of casareep (cassava molasses)\, a thick black sauce made from cassava root and local spices like cinnamon and cloves. In addition to adding a unique sweetness and rich\, dark colour\, it is considered to have tonic and antiseptic properties\, and also acts as a preservative. \nEshwar’s features oxtail\, slowly braised until meltingly tender and unctuous\, infused with garlic\, thyme\, Chef’s secret spices and touch of scotch bonnet pepper. Served with classic Caribbean rice & peas: black eye peas & long-grain rice cooked with coconut milk\, and colourful medley seasonal of steamed seasonal vegetables tossed in shallot & thyme butter. \nCurry Coconut Cauliflower\nThe legacy of over a century of emigrant\, and often indentured\, Indian workers have made the spices and dishes of the subcontinent an integral part of the fabric of many Caribbean cultures. This vegetarian dish emerges from that tradition\, and showcases Chef Eshwar’s homemade garam masala spice blend. Cauliflower and potatoes in a coconut curry gravy\, with a hint of sweetness complimented by the warm spices. Served with a golden turmeric rice pilaf studded with carrots & red peppers\, homemade roasted garlic & herb naan\, and a colourful medley of steamed seasonal vegetables tossed with shallots & thyme. \nCassava Coconut Pone\nLanding somewhere in texture between a crust-less cheesecake and a flan\, this luscious dessert is made with finely grated cassava and coconut baked in a rich coconut milk and egg custard\, topped with caramelized coconut.\n—– \nBeef\, Vegetarian or 1/2+1/2\nGuyanese Dinner — $48 for 2  •  $90 for 4 \nAlso available: Chefwars’ signature hot sauces and spice blends\nHot Sauces: Mango\, Tamarind\, or Triple Blend  |  5oz\nSpice Blends: Jerk Rub\, or Garam Masala  |  60g\n$7.50 \nDue to a very high number of orders\, we have had to close ordering for this event a little earlier than usual. Sorry for any inconvenience.\nORDER FOR THIS EVENT IS NOW CLOSED. PICK UP IS WED 6-7:30PM\n\nEshwar Sarwan is the grandson of the indentured labourers brought to Guyana from India. At the young age of eleven\, he migrated with his parents and six of his eight siblings to Canada. From a very young age\, Eshwar and his siblings worked alongside his mom whose food entrepreneur business that would support their family. By the time he graduated from high school\, it was apparent that a love of food was part of his DNA. \nAfter a successful career in Business Accounting\, Eshwar returned to his passion for food and secured his Chef’s papers from George Brown. His tenacity in the kitchen earned him the nickname “Chefwar”\, which became the name of his new catering enterprise and growing brand of hot sauces\, condiments\, and spice blends. Chefwar’s Kitchen features Caribbean-inspired flavours\, where Guyanese home cooking meets classical French techniques; all infused with an abiding passion for food.

SUMMARY:PICK-UP DINNER: Fall In Southern China by Cheng Feng
DESCRIPTION:Pre-order online until TUE Oct 13\, 10pm\nPick up on WED Oct 14\, 6-7:30pm\nWherever in the world the weather starts to turn cold and damp\, warming comfort foods start to emerge\, and the provinces of Southern China — Hunan\, Guangdong\, Guangxi\, and Hainan — are no exception. Chef Cheng Feng brings us some regional and seasonal Chinese specialties to usher in this cool and colourful season.\n—– \nApple Snail with Shiso & Black Bean\nSnails are a popular street food in China\, and they come into season in autumn. Freshwater Apple Snails are larger than their land-dwelling French escargots cousins\, and have a lighter\, more lobster/shellfish flavour. This recipe sees slices stir fried with aromatic shiso leaves (aka purple perilla\, a relative of mint and basil\, popular in Japanese and Korean cooking)\, along with the holy trinity of ginger\, garlic\, and scallions\, fermented black beans\, and preserved bamboo shoots. Served on a bed of fresh arugula with lemon on the side. \nOld Friend Noodles (老友粉)\nLaoyou rice noodles — known as “Old Friend Noodles” — are an iconic dish in Chef Cheng’s hometown of Nanning\, with a charming\, if apocryphal\, origin story: \n“A long time ago\, a man named Zhou owned a tea shop. Every day for many years an old man came to drink tea and soon became friends with Zhou. One day\, the old man didn’t come to the tea shop. Zhou went to the man’s house and found him deathly ill.

SUMMARY:PICK-UP DINNER: Mexican Independence Day by Erika Araujo
DESCRIPTION:Pre-order online until TUE Sep 15\, 10pm\nPick up on WED Sep 16\, 6-7:30pm\nThe story of Mexican independence from Spain is an epic saga that is commemorated on September 16\, the date a defrocked Catholic priest known as Father Hidalgo gave a rousing speech in the town of Dolores. It set in motion a decade-long revolution that would see him beheaded\, but ultimately Mexico freed from Spanish rule. \nBy 1821\, military commander Agustin de Iturbide (who had switched sides from the Spanish Army) had signed the Treaty of Cordoba granting Mexico its independence. En route to Mexico City he stopped in the town of Puebla where a celebratory feast was held\, and the nuns of the Santa Monica convent sought to prepare a special dish using what local ingredients were in season\, like pomegranate and walnuts. The result was Chiles en Nogada (stuffed poblano peppers in walnut sauce)\, and it has remained a popular dish for 200 years. Since it incorporates the colors of the Mexican flag—red\, white\, and green—this labour-intensive dish is considered a very patriotic and festive recipe. Join Chef Erika Araujo of Ixiim as she shares this delicious piece of Mexican history and culture with you.\n—– \nSopa de Fideos\nA classic Mexican comfort food; thin\, short vermicelli noodles\, often lightly toasted\, are cooked in a light\, tomato-infused broth. \nChiles en Nogada\nSometimes referred to as the “national dish” of Mexico\, it is often served to commemorate Mexican Independence Day. Whole Poblano peppers are carefully roasted\, skinned and de-seeded before being stuffed with picadillo\, a mixture of ground beef\, onions spices\, and dried fruit. It is then covered in a rich\, creamy white walnut-based sauce\, and finished with a garnish of pomegranate seeds and parsley\, giving it the red\, green and white colours of the Mexican flag. Served with fresh corn tortillas and Mexican-style rice. \nAlso available #vegetarian\, with a lentil & beet filling \nBuñuelos de Viento\nA festive holiday dessert\, these light fried wafers — somewhere between cookie\, donut and waffle — are made with a special tool (a buñuelera) that give them their distinctive snowflake shape\, and then dusted with powdered sugar.\n—- \nBonus! Frozen Tamales 6 for $23\nTamales freeze beautifully\, and warm up perfectly in the microwave or steamer; a perfect\, wholesome\, quick & easy anytime snack. Choice of chicken with salsa verde\, or vegetarian with cheese\, peppers and red salsa.\n—– \nBeef\, Vegetarian\, or 1/2+1/2\nMexican Independence Day Dinner\nfor 2 $48 • for 4 $90 \nORDERING FOR THIS EVENT IS NOW CLOSED. PICKUP IS WED 6-7:30PM\nSorry\, we had to close orders early due to a scarcity of fresh poblano peppers in the city. \n\nErika Araujo is a trained nurse in Mexico who found her passion for Gastronomy once she migrated to Canada. She completed the Culinary program at Humber College\, and since then she has been tirelessly promoting Mexican culture and cuisine through her brand Ixiim\, at workshops and culinary events like TacoFest\, Soupalicious and the PanAm Games.

SUMMARY:PICK-UP DINNER: Curry-Q by Rhoma Spencer
DESCRIPTION:Pre-order online until TUE Sep 8\, 10pm\nPick up on WED Sep 9\, 6-7:30pm\nA Curry-Q is a Trinidad and Tobago construct; a mashup of traditional Caribbean barbecue and the festive banquets served at Indian weddings and religious holidays. It is a unique\, if unsurprising\, cultural hybrid given the history of the islands. East Indians first arrived in Trinidad as indentured servants in 1845 to fulfill the shortage of labour on the sugarcane plantations after the emancipation of enslaved Africans. With them came their culinary heritage\, spices and techniques which over time became an integral part of the country’s cuisine\, so much so that today many Trini dishes are best known by their Hindi name (eg. aloo for potato\, bhagi for spinach\, dhal for yellow split peas\, and channa for chickpeas\, just to name a few). \nToday\, a Curry-Q is a favourite menu at river and beach limes (outdoor parties)\, and shows off the diverse range of curry flavours; from dark brown and extra-spicy\, to mellow and golden\, all served with “Buss Up Shut”\, tender\, thin paratha rotis (traditional Indian flatbreads) pulled into big pieces said to resemble a torn up shirt. \nJoin Chef Rhoma Spencer for a truly Trinbagonian national pastime. Hurry\, hurry come for curry!\n—– \nDhal Soup with Pholourie\nA creamy yellow split peas soup sprinkled with geera (cumin) and roasted garlic\, fortified with “boulders”\, savoury fried dumplings made from split peas flour. \nCurry-Q with Buss Up Shut \nCurry Chicken — Chicken marinated for 24 hours in herbs and spices and stewed in curry gravy.\n–or–\nCurry Bodi (veg) — Fresh green string beans braised in garlic\, geera (cumin)\, herbs and curry paste. \nwith\nCurry Aloo – potatoes cooked in a tumeric curry stew.\nCurry Channa – chickpeas with curry\, garlic\, and herbs\nMango Talkari – tart green mango stewed with garam masala\nBuss Up Shut – torn pieces of soft paratha roti \nBatey\nA sweet tropical macaroon made with a combination of coconut and banana. \n—– \nChicken\, Vegetarian or 1/2+1/2\nCurry-Q Dinner for 2 $48 • for 4 $90 \nORDERING FOR THIS EVENT IS NOW CLOSED.

SUMMARY:PICK-UP DINNER: Xinjiang BBQ by Robert Yee
DESCRIPTION:Pre-order online until THU Aug 27\, 10pm\nPick up on FRI Aug 28\, 6-7:30pm\nFrom familiar American-style BBQ\, to the remote mountains of China’s Xinjiang province\, meat cooked over a fire remains probably one of the most fundamental and universal of all culinary traditions. The Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region (XUAR) — China’s largest province — is located in the country’s extreme northwest. For centuries\, the Silk Road trade routes ran through the territory\, connecting the Far East with Central Asia\, the Middle East and Europe. As a result\, there are myriad ethnic influences in the local culture and the population remains predominantly Muslim. \nRobert Yee draws inspiration from this remote but cosmopolitan cuisine to showcase a less familiar approach to BBQ\, one that represents a fusion of cultures at the intersection of East & Central Asia .\n—– \nPai Huang Gua — Smashed Cucumber Salad\nFresh cucumber is chopped and lightly ‘smashed’ to facilitate more thorough absorption of a tasty dressing of garlic\, soy sauce\, black rice (chinkiang) vinegar\, sesame oil\, and sugar. \nXinjiang Yang Rou Chuan — Lamb –or– Tofu skewers\nProbably the most iconic of Xinjiang dishes would be the ubiquitous lamb skewers found in street stalls and markets throughout the region. Halal lamb\, potently seasoned with cumin\, coriander seed\, chili powder\, and salt\, and typically grilled over hot coals. \nServed with fresh Chinese greens (Yu Choy or Gai Lan) stir-fried with garlic\, fresh jasmine rice\, and a small side of Northern-style pickled bamboo shoots preserved in chili oil. \nXing Ren Do Fu — Almond Jelly with Osmanthus Syrup\nA delicate dessert made from Chinese “almonds” (technically sweet apricot seeds)\, whose milk is bound into a light jelly with sugar and agar\, and then garnished with a syrup in which fragrant osmanthus flowers have been steeped.\n—– \nLamb\, Vegetarian\, or 1/2+1/2\nXinjiang Dinner for 2 $48 • for 4 $90 \nORDERING IS NOW CLOSED FOR THIS EVENT. PICK UP IS FRI 6-7:30PM\n\nRaised by his grandmother’s cuisine\, Robert Yee has always had a strong interest in the culinary arts. A software developer by day\, he trained in the Culinary Arts program by night\, with a focus on global cuisines. A traveller who “eats the world”\, he brings back inspirations and techniques from local artisans as well as Michelin starred restaurants. You can follow his culinary adventures on Instagram and Facebook @superbgourmand. \n\n

SUMMARY:PICK-UP DINNER: Birria a la Zacateca by Greg Couillard
DESCRIPTION:Pre-order online until TUE Aug 25\, 10pm\nPick up on WED Aug 26\, 6-7:30pm\nChef Greg Couillard’s culinary curiosity never rests; he has spent the last decade or so on the Pacific coast of Mexico\, deepening his understanding of the regional cuisines there. Inspired by the ingredients\, spices and flavours of his winter home\, Greg brings his unique personal take on Mexican cuisine to the table with this exquisite dinner.\n—– \nSopa de Calabaza\nGolden squash\, white beans\, zucchini and corn\, oregano and thyme in tomatillo and chile infused broth. \nBirria de Res a la Zacateca\nBirria\, a traditional Mexican slow-cooked braise of meat — goat\, mutton or beef in a red chile broth — can be found everywhere from street carts in Jalisco\, to weddings in Zacatecas. Greg braises beef chuck in a blend of pasilla and guajillo peppers\, and chile arbol\, along with tomatoes and the distinctive Mexican herb epazote. The result is a rich\, deep red stew with tender meat and a complex\, layered flavour\, complemented by the classic toppings of onion\, cilantro and lime.\n–or–\nVegetable Medley Birria\nSweet potato\, chayote\, corn\, pumpkin\, and black beans in a rich\, red tomato & chile broth. \nServed with rajas — strips of poblano & red peppers\, with fresh corn tossed in crema and topped with a crumble of cotija cheese — plus Mexican rice\, and fresh corn tortillas. \nTorta De Tres Leches Melocotón\nDense sponge cake soaked in three kinds of milk: evaporated milk\, condensed milk\, and heavy cream\, topped with fresh Ontario summer peaches and a drizzle of golden cajeta (goats’ milk caramel).\n—– \nBeef\, Vegetarian\, or 1/2+1/2\nBirria Dinner for 2 $48 • for 4 $90 \nAdd Greg’s No Refund Hot Sauce — Triple Threat or Ted’s Here +$12 \nORDERING FOR THIS EVENT IS NOW CLOSED. PICK-UP IS WED 6-7:30PM\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. Chef Greg’s latest project includes a new line of hot sauces called No Refund — Too Hot? Too Bad! — which can be purchased online at foxmarket.ca \n\n  \n
