DESCRIPTION:**A Second Night has been added by popular demand** \nFor more than 600 years\, the vast Ottoman empire represented one of the most sophisticated aristocratic cultures in the world.

If you have ever enjoyed yogurt\, döners or shawarma\, pita bread\, feta cheese\, baklava\, lahmacun (“Turkish Delight”)\, sarma (cabbage rolls)\, or rice pilaf\, you have tasted a bit of the lasting legacy of Ottoman influence on global cuisine. \nThe heart of Ottoman culture was in Istanbul\, the capital\, where the imperial court and the metropolitan elites established a refined culinary tradition bringing together elements of regional cuisines from across the empire. It was here\, in the kitchens of the Imperial palace\, that Ottoman cuisine reached it’s most refined form. \nChef Murat Ozsuvari\, studied and cooked around the world before basing himself Istanbul Beyoglu where he ran a successful catering business.

SUMMARY:SUPPER CLUB : Basque Cuisine by Chantal Véchambre
DESCRIPTION:The Basque region straddles France and Spain and is well known for its excellent food. It’s also where Chef Chantal Véchambre spent much of her childhood\, growing up near the ocean in Biarritz\, France. Her menu is a reminiscence of her upbringing and the food of her youth\, and features a selection of classic French Basque dishes \nTtoro Soup\nThis is a classic fisherman’s soup similar to the Provençal bouillabaisse\, made with a variety of fish\, gambas (Mediterranean shrimp)\, mussels\, and tomatoes\, and spiced with the distinctive Espelette pepper\, from the Espelette region in the Pyrenees. Served with large croutons of bread. \nChicken Basquaise and Piperade\nSeared chicken legs are a slow-cooked with a Basque piperade stew of onions\, garlic\, green & red peppers\, plenty of tomatoes\, and spiced with the traditional Espelette pepper. Served over rice\, with a light green salad. \nGateau Basque\nOne of the most well know Basque specialities\, this dessert is neither strictly a tart nor a cake\, but rather a sweet sourdough pastry with one of two traditional fillings. You’ll get to try both versions; one with rich creme patissiere\, and the traditional dark cherry marmalade using the Itxasxou cherries found in the region. \nBayonne Hot Chocolate\nThe Bayonne region has had a rich history of chocolate makers\, many of whom were Sephardic Jews who resettled there after being driven away from other areas outside Iberia and the Basque region. This spicy hot chocolate\, gets its kick from the characteristic Espelette pepper. \n$40 +HST \n—–\nChantal Vechambre\, a French national and trained chef\, spent 6 years in Atlantic Canada\, in part researching her award-winning book French Taste in Atlantic Canada\, A gastronomic history 1604-1758\, about the ingredients\, adventures and history of the Acadian people who lived at the Fortress of Louisbourg in Nova Scotia.\nhttp://www.chantalvechambre.com \n—–\nEvery weekend The Depanneur invites a guest chef to host a fun\, informal dinner party.

SUMMARY:DROP-IN DINNER: Ervilhas Guisadas & Milho Frito by Len Senater
DESCRIPTION:Despite living in the middle of “Little Portugal”\, there is so much terrific Portuguese home cooking that I rarely see on local menus\, which lean more towards Churrasqueira staples like roast chicken\, grilled fish and suckling pig. Tonight’s dish — inspired by Paula Costa‘s enthusiastic evangelism of Portuguese cuisine — emphasizes Portugal’s connection to the Mediterranean\, as well as the North African Moorish & Sephardic Jewish influences that it shares with Spain. \nErvilhas Guisadas com Linguica e Ovos (Stewed Peas with Linguica Sausage and Eggs) is the Portuguese interpretation of Shakshouka — eggs poached in a flavourful tomato-based sauce — that is found across the Mediterranean from Morocco to Syria. It is given a characteristic Portuguese flavour through the addition of linguiça or chouriço sausage (optional)\, and a generous helping of green peas. It’s served with another Portuguese specialty\, Milho Frito – delicious fried polenta cubes laced with garlic and finely shredded kale or collard greens – usually served with the giant meat skewers known as Espetada in the Madeira region.\n$12 +HST\n#GF #vegan option \n7pm: TABLE TALK: Paula Costa\nAvid cook\, food blogger Paula Costa talks about the benefits of the Mediterranean diet and Yottam Ottolenghi’s influence. \n—–\nLen Senater is the founder and proprietor of The Depanneur\, who happily cooks for his friends and neighbours every Tuesday night.

SUMMARY:WORKSHOP: Whole Animal Butchery by Chef Michael Kirkwood
DESCRIPTION:Special Full-Day Workshop (10am-5pm).\nIncludes meals and snacks throughout the day. \nThis Victoria Day\, join veteran professional Chef Michael Kirkwood for an in-depth introduction to whole-animal butchery. This hands-on\, day-long workshop will cover the techniques and cuts for three primary types of animal encountered in the kitchen: quadrupeds\, fish and fowl. You’ll be breaking down a whole young hog (the basic techniques also apply to lamb\, goat and beef)\, a whole salmon\, and whole chickens. \nBreaking down a whole animal is not only more cost-effective than buying pre-cut parts\, but it give you much more control over the resulting cuts\, allowing you to optimize them for specific dishes. The class will also include the preparation\, sharing and tasting of several recipes: \nPORK: a roasted rack\, and an apple & sage stuffed saddle; there will also be a demo of how to cure pork belly to make bacon. \nSALMON: pan-seared fillets from one side\, a gravlax-style maple cure for the other\, and some salmon tartar with the belly and other offcuts. \nCHICKEN: pan-seared breast supremes\, deboned and stuffed chicken legs\, and a basic chicken stock. \nAny leftover cuts will be divvied up amongst the participants to take home. \n$125 +HST \n—–\nChef Michael Kirkwood has honed his culinary skills in some of Toronto’s finest restaurants including Avalon\, Toro\, Opus\, and Turf Lounge. Known for his “Canadian Contemporary” style\, he’s committed to a quality food experience without compromising on using fresh\, local and artisan style ingredients to create a clever fusion of flavors in his cooking. Now\, as creator and founder of The Birchwood Kitchen — a mobile culinary studio providing cooking classes for children and adults — he enjoys catering small events and seasonal tastings. \n—–\nEvery Monday\, The Depanneur invites TO’s best culinary talents to lead fun\, hands-on workshops.

SUMMARY:SUPPER CLUB: Dragon Boat Festival Banquet by Lejen Chen
DESCRIPTION:The Chinese year is marked by several key celebrations: Chinese New Year in February\, the Moon Festival in the fall\, and the Dragon Boat Festival in early summer. Each festival has a rich culinary tradition associated with it\, and we’re excited to announce that organic food entrepreneur Lejen Chen will be returning to The Dep to prepare another authentic Chinese banquet — featuring local\, organic\, seasonal and sustainable ingredients wherever possible — in anticipation of June’s Lóngchuánjié 端午节 or Dragon Boat Festival. \nThe Dragon Boat Festival commemorates the life and thought of Chinese minister and poet Qu Yuan who drowned himself in Miluo river after being ostracized unjustly from his community. Traditionally\, people would offer sticky rice dumplings known as zongzi or zong into a river or body of water to symbolically protect Qu Yuan from being eaten up by fish\, and also hold boat racing competitions to scare off evil spirits. \nLejen explains:\n“The centrepiece of this meal is the zong or zongzi. In the South it’s a savory sticky rice pyramid stuffed with pork belly ham\, salted duck yolk\, and either chestnuts\, peanuts\, or mung beans; sometimes all three. In the North it’s normally plain sticky rice stuffed with dates\, red beans or sweetened bean paste and wrapped in reed leaves since they don’t have bamboo. Not as tasty but it retains its natural fragrance and it’s normally eaten with other savory dishes. Zongzis are eaten throughout China on this day. In Chaozhou\, my family’s hometown\, the zongzi is often a combination of savory and sweet. This type of zongzi is only sold in the Chaozhou area and I have not found it anywhere else in China. \n…The Chinese zongzi is certainly one of my favorite comfort foods. I think this is mostly because every family and very place makes a slightly different zongzi. When you cut into the zongzi with your chopsticks the best part is always in the filling. It never fails to surprise. Will it have salted egg or not? What kind of pork will it have? Ham\, bacon or sausage? I always look forward to a good salted duck yolk. If it’s been made well it will ooze with oil and has a meltingly smooth texture not unlike shortbread. \nThen I look forward to finding the pork belly. I don’t like it when it’s too fatty but the fat adds to the overall smoothness of the sticky rice. The texture of the sticky rice is really important too. It should be boiled until each grain is meshed into a pudding texture so you can easily cut it with your chopsticks. Wrapping and cooking it in bamboo leaves impart a subtle fragrance of bamboo into the rice. This is a meal in itself and is quite filling. Sometimes as a street food it is served fried and the outer crust becomes crispy and crunchy. It’s so good that you look forward to eating this year after year. \nFor this meal I reach back into my family’s rich food culture from Chaozhou\, and make my interpretation of our unique savoury and sweet zongzi.” \n—–\n Citrus Infused Kefir Soda\n Homemade kefir water with pink grapefruit and/or blood orange \nScallion Pancakes\nTraditional Chinese scallion pancakes with the addition of local wild ramps \nOsmanthus Rice Stuffed Lotus Root \nSmoked Garlic\nfrom Vickis Veggies \n“Small Steamer” Beef Meatball Dumplings\nwith pickled garlic vinegar and soy dipping sauce \nDragonhead Salad\nLocal fiddleheads (known as “Dragonheads” in China)\, in a light vinegar dressing \nDandelion Egg Foo Young\nLocal dandelion greens pan-fried with organic eggs from Marvelous Edibles \nBraised Bamboo Shoots with Shiitake Mushrooms \nDragon Boat Festival Stuffed Rice Zongzi\n(aka Chinese Tamale) a savory\, sticky rice pudding stuffed with pork belly and salted duck yolk\, wrapped with bamboo leaves and steamed \nMugwort Aiwowo filled with Sweet Lotus Cream\n(aka Green Mochi).\n—– \n$50 +HST \n—–\nA Chinese-American native of Brooklyn\, NY\, Lejen Chen returned to China to open Mrs. Shanen’s\, Beijing’s first bagel bakery! Dismayed by the difficulty of sourcing local organic produce and dairy\, she went on to found Green Cow Farms\, an organic farm and CSA that supplies her two popular Beijing cafés. She’s traveled extensively in China in search of heritage seeds\, breeds and traditional Chinese comfort foods\, which historically were mostly organic. \n—–\nEvery weekend The Depanneur invites a guest chef to host a fun\, informal dinner party.

SUMMARY:DROP-IN DINNER: Zha Jiang Mian - Beijing Street Noodles by Len Senater
DESCRIPTION:Zha Jiang Mian (炸酱面\, literally “Fried Sauce Noodles”) are one of Beijing’s most well-known and well-loved street foods.

I’ll be topping the bowls with an assortment of fresh veggies: shredded carrot and cucumber\, scallion and bean sprouts\, edamame and peanuts. Chili oil will be available for those who like it spicy.\n$12 +HST \n#vegan available  \n7pm: TABLE TALK: Lejen Chen\nAward-winning Beijing restaurateur and organic food entrepreneur\, Lejen will be talking about the changing face of traditional Chinese foodways\, in China and abroad. \n—–\nLen Senater is the founder and proprietor of The Depanneur\, who happily cooks for his friends and neighbours every Tuesday night. \nLearn more about our Drop-In Dinners\nhttp://staging.thedepanneur.ca/drop-in-dinners/

SUMMARY:DROP-IN DINNER: Piri-Piri in Little Portugal by Kyle Wyatt
DESCRIPTION:Chef Kyle Thomas Wyatt of Craft Paper Catering fell in love twice: once with his girlfriend\, and again with the world of amazing Portuguese food that her family introduced him to. A recent GBC grad\, Kyle is combining his passion for from-scratch cooking with his new-found enthusiasm for the under-appreciated flavours of Portugal. \nPortuguese food has all the hallmarks of the great Mediterranean food traditions\, but rarely gets the attention afforded to its Spanish\, French or Italian neighbours. Living in “Little Portugal” gives one a glimpse into the cuisine\, but there’s a lot more to discovers than just rotisserie chicken and custard tarts. \nBolinho de Bacalhau $5\nSalt cod (bacalhau) has long been a Portuguese staple\, fished from the North Atlantic for centuries\, as far West as the Grand Banks. These classic fritters combine the fish with potatoes\, onions\, parsley and oregano\, fried until dark gold and crunchy\, and served with a Piri-Piri tartare sauce. \nPiri-Piri Chicken Sausage $12\nThese mild\, homemade sausages are richly seasoned with paprika and oregano\, a bit of lemon and vinegar\, plus onions\, and Portuguese pimenta (salted & fermented red pepper)\, served on fresh Blackbird Bakery buns slathered with a garlicky aioli. Each plate comes with a side of roasted potato wedges. \nArroz Doce $4\nA favourite dessert\, this creamy long grain rice pudding infused with lemon peel and topped with cinnamon. \nPrix Fixe\nBolinho + Piri-Piri Chicken Sausage + Arroz Doce\n $20\n————-\nKyle Thomas Wyatt\, a George Brown College graduate\, was greatly influenced by his upbringing in rural Sault Ste Marie to source and use natural local produce. And thanks to a large italian community\, his knowledge and skills in Italian cookery were fostered. He has an obsession with food and is always looking to find new techniques and ingredients. At the core of his cooking philosophy\, everything comes full circle: our stewardship of the land begets healthy\, flavourful food. After GBC\, Kyle refined his butchery skills taking his passion to local farmers who shared a common philosophy\, leading Kyle to begin building Craft Paper Catering. \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.
