This will be 10th of my Vegan dinner event - I have been doing the event for 5 years, I used to call it “Far East”, but not anymore.

Still I’m using traditional Japanese methods but it isn’t visually noticed when you served the dishes at the table.

This time, foods are European inspired.

I went Denmark in April for joining Mad symposium which is hosting by Mad project, they are doing hospitality related symposiums.It was very inspiring days, but won’t write about this subject here, I will write about it in the future.

Back to main subject, the menu is inspired by the trip. and wanted to do this event light after, but I got long covid symptoms for two month.

.Anyways, it is 6 course, introducing a few of dishes of the menu..Ticket link is here

I will donate 10% of ticket sales to Vancouver farmers market. I saw many farmers are struggling with weather this year, and I wanted to do something to support them.Using local farm veggies as usual.
