#LastChance FRI Dec 3 — Pick Up Dinner: A Taste #LastChance FRI Dec 3 — Pick Up Dinner: A Taste of Home by Syrian Sisters Pre-order online until THU Dec 2, 10pm • Pick up FRI Dec 3, 6-7:30pm In early 2016, shortly after hundreds of Syrian refugee families arrived in Toronto, The Depanneur reached out with an invitation to share our kitchen. From that small gesture of hospitality emerged Newcomer Kitchen, which evolved into a nonprofit organization dedicated to creating social and economic opportunities for newcomer women while enriching the culinary landscape of our city. Now, 5 years and thousands of meals later, a small group of the original participants have teamed up to form their own catering business, Syrian Sisters. Tonight’s menu features a selection of traditional Syrian dishes that were among my favourites from the Newcomer Kitchen project. ——— Shamandar Hummus A gorgeously pink relative of hummus, it’s made with creamy chickpeas and sweet, earthy beets combined with yogurt, tahini, lemon, and a bit garlic, finished with walnut pieces and parsley, and served with toasted pita chips. Mosaqaa Batinjan bil Lahmeh Eggplants and tomatoes are at the heart of many wonderful Levantine dishes. This dish, a flavourful eggplant stew with tomatoes, peppers and halal beef is a relative of Greek moussaka or Lebanese maghmour. Also available vegetarian, with chickpeas & potatoes. Both come with a side of bulgur bel sharia, a nutty bulgur wheat pilaf cooked with strands of golden fried vermicelli Malfouf Salatet A cool, refreshing salad made of chopped cabbage, diced tomatoes and pomegranate seeds, dressed with olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, sumac, and fresh mint. Basbousa A golden, semolina-based cake that is soaked in an orange-blossom scented sugar syrup; the addition of yogurt and grated coconut gives it a rich, macaroon-like quality. ----- Also available: Handmade balls of pressed yogurt cheese, flavoured with mint and nigella seeds, preserved in olive oil Labneh | 375ml jar | $12 ---- Beef, Vegetarian or 1/2+1/2 Syrian Dinner for 2 $48 • for 4 $90 ⬇️ ORDER BELOW ⬇️ https://thedepanneur.ca/event/pick-up-dinner-flavours-of-damascus-by-syrian-sisters-2/ @newcomerkitchen @syriansisterskitchen

Was going through lovely pics by Ksenija Hotic for Was going through lovely pics by Ksenija Hotic for the forthcoming The Depanneur Cookbook, taken at Alissa Kondogiannis's Hanukkah dinner from last December, and this image immediately evoked the sense memory of her garlicky eggplant salad, so beautifully illuminated by this poem about garlic and memory. ----- Ode to Garlic by William Stafford. Sudden, it comes for you in the cave of yourself where you know and are lifted by important events. Say you are dining and it happens: Soaring like an eagle, you are pierced by a message from the midst of life: Memory – what holds the days together – touches your tongue. It is from deep in the earth and it reaches out kindly, saying, “Hello Old Friend.” It makes alike, all offspring of powerful forces, part of one great embrace of democracy, united across every boundary. You walk out generously, giving it back in a graceful wave, what you’ve been given. Like a child, you breathe on the world, and it shines. ----- You can order this dinner, for pickup tomorrow night, up to 10pm tonight, or until it sells out (it did last year, so don't sleep on this). WED Dec 1 - Pick Up Dinner: A Greco-Jewish Hanukkah by Alissa Kondogiannis
#LastChance WED Dec 1 — Pick Up Dinner: A Greco- #LastChance WED Dec 1 — Pick Up Dinner: A Greco-Jewish Hanukkah by Alissa Kondogiannis Pre-order online until TUE Nov 30, 10pm • Pick up on WED Dec 1, 6-7:30pm Greek and Jewish cuisine is not an especially common fusion, which is actually kind of odd, given the thousand-plus years of coexistence that they shared in antiquity, stretching back to at least 400 BCE. Tonight’s dinner is a Greek-Jewish fusion, prepared by Alissa Kondogiannis of @barnstarkitchen, a Greek-Jewish mash-up herself, equally inspired by classic Hanukkah treats and the Mediterranean flavours of Greece. ----- Lemony Lentil Soup This lemony lentil soup is full of bright, zesty flavours. A family favourite at this time of year, this soup is a simple purée of red lentils, white onion and garlic with a splash of lemon. Latkes The main attraction at any Hannukah gathering, fluffy on the inside and crisp on the outside, latkes are made with grated potatoes, eggs, flour and onions. Fried to crispy perfection, they are good hot or cold. Tzatziki Greeks and Jews are interwoven in the Hannukah story, this meal represents that with the addition of Greece’s most popular Mezze dish. With cucumber, garlic, yoghurt and dill, it makes simple sour cream feel a little self-conscious. Available with tahini instead #vegan Fried Eggplant Salad with Dill Essentially a pile of garlicky fried eggplant with a tangy vinaigrette, this is the perfect Channukah “salad”. Layered with Aleppo pepper, shallots and dill and a hearty helping of olive oil, it only gets better with time. Loukoumades Sold in almost every cafe in Greece, with a zest of orange and a hint of cinnamon, these little doughnuts are drenched in honey syrup and make the perfect end to a Channukah meal. Available #vegan ----- Also available: Frozen Latkes (8) $18 Just reheat & serve! Vegetarian (dairy) –or– Vegan Hanukkah Latke Dinner — $48 for 2 • $90 for 4 ⬇️ ORDER HERE ⬇️ https://thedepanneur.ca/event/pick-up-dinner-a-greco-jewish-hanukkah-by-alissa-kondogiannis-2/
