Last month Action Against Hunger Canada’s thank you party for the first annual Love Food Give Food fundraising campaign was held at the Coffee Pub in the Centre for Social Innovation. The evening was hosted and catered by ACF’s hard-working staff, who chose to thank the restaurant partners by turning the tables and cooking for the guest chefs. From sriracha pickled cabbage to delicious goat cheese stuffed dates, to mini tiramisu in mason jars, we prepared food that we love!
The party included a delightful and intimate performance by the Toronto based folk band Birds of Bellwoods.
The wine selection was generously provided by Rosewood Estates Winery and graciously served by one of the winery’s owners, William Roman.
Our guests included Mr. Zane Caplansky, of Caplansky’s Deli, food trucks, and catering, Ms. Maggie McKeown, celebrated chef, Mr. Rodney Bowers, Meatball King of Toronto, JP Challet, of Ici Bistro, and Mike Chalut, from the Mike Chalut show.
