Gujarat’s reputation as a strictly vegetarian haven isn’t the whole truth. "Pure Non-Veg" is my playful jab at this rigid mindset, serving as a reminder that Gujaratis have been enjoying delicious meat dishes for centuries. Come hungry for bold flavors, captivating stories, and dishes cooked straight from my heart (and my memories!). Because guess what? Gujarat isn’t purely vegetarian, and it’s high time we celebrate that delicious fact!

Maria Polotan probably did more to transform my appreciation of Filipino food than anyone. Prior to starting The Dep, I hadn’t really had much experience with this cuisine. But that all changed when Maria brought these amazing flavours to Mama Linda’s — her 2020 Brunch residency at The Dep, and then to Lami, her East end brunch pop-up. All I can say is if you have not had the chance to try silog, the classic Filipino brunch of garlic fried rice with a fried duck egg, topped with Maria's homemade savoury-sweet, Pinoy-style sausage or hash, you want to get on that ASAP. (Note: Maria makes all of her sausage and corned beef from scratch (brined for 1 week!) using quality local meats from Sanagan's, and uses gluten-free soy sauce throughout.)  Since this has become one of my all-time favourite brunch meals, and Mother's Day is the quintessential brunch day, it only makes sense to bring these things together at The Dep with three 2-hour family-style seatings: 10am, 12pm and 2pm.
