Event Recap

One of the fuller rooms we have had, and a table that ran out of space before it ran out of dishes.

The park picnic got rained out, so August moved into the party room where Sauté Sundays started.

Our July table, cooked from Vietnamese Food Any Day by Andrea Nguyen.

Our biggest table yet, and four people who all took plantain in completely different directions.

Grilled kefta, chicken skewers, and the first month warm enough that nobody was in a hurry to eat.

A cuisine most of the room was meeting for the first time, our first collab with Danu Social House, and an ice cream I never got to try.

The month people went and bought the book afterwards, and two cakes I am still thinking about.

Pork belly in a coffee glaze, quail eggs in corn dog batter, and one of the loudest rooms we have had.

The most intimidating book we have picked, in the coldest month of the year, and exactly the right call.

Black daal, chicken ruby, gunpowder potatoes, and the only compliment I actually wanted.

No turkey, and nobody missed it. Our stress-free edition, for people who were not sure they could cook.

Beef rolls, sloppy bao, clams, and a pot of soup that came all the way from Markham.

A taco bar built by the whole room, and a brisket that took someone two days.

Our first public table. Big bowls, loud dressings, and the discovery that a salad can absolutely be the main event.
