Virtual Communal Table Dinner on February 12, 2021

Location: 100 Elgin St, Ottawa, ON K1P 5K8, Canada View Map

Want a cure for the February and COVID-19 blues? Join me for a special surprise five-course Virtual Communal Table dinner on Friday, February 12, 2021.

The last dinner on December 11 sold out quickly, with 75 percent of guests from the previous one signing up and selling out the 100-seat dinner quickly.

The February 12 dinner is near Valentine’s day. It’s a great opportunity to focus on love. I believe the most important love is self-love. What better way to take care of yourself during these harsh times than with delicious, nourishing food made with love and care?

On February 12, we’ll have your five-course dinner ready for pick up at the Grill 41 Restaurant, Lord Elgin Hotel, or you can have it delivered to your home. The entire menu will be vegan, gluten-free and made with whole foods.

Please let us know if you or anyone in your group has allergies at the time of purchase. For any specific questions, please email the box office: chefcarolineishii@yahoo.com

At 7 pm, there is an optional Virtual Communal Table on Zoom to share food with me and other diners and connect. I’ll explain the dishes, answer questions, and I’ll have other surprises for you because I love surprises!

The early bird rate for the five-course menu is $75 per person.

As of January 8, the price changes to $85 per person.

It’s $10 for delivery in the Ottawa region. For outside the Ottawa region, please contact us.

I look forward to nourishing you and connecting on February 12!

Love, Caroline

World Food Day Virtual Communal Table with Chef Caroline

Online Event

Join me for a special five-course take out dinner in honour of World Food Day on Friday, October 16.

These are brave new times. How can we remain connected when the pandemic has brought social isolation even more to the forefront?

My solution is a virtual communal table on Zoom, in collaboration with Chef Neil Mather and the Lord Elgin Hotel!

Before the event, you can choose to pick up your dinner or have it delivered to your home. Then you’ll have the option of gathering with other diners at 7 pm.

I’ll introduce the dishes and talk about my experience in Japan. Moe Garahan from Just Food will speak about how her organization is working toward a safe and equitable food supply system in Ottawa during the pandemic. You’ll have the opportunity to ask us questions.

The inspiration for the menu has come from my time in Japan and the fall season bounty. The entire menu will be vegan and gluten-free, and made with natural and seasonal ingredients, and lots of love.

World Food Day is observed every year on October 16 to strive to eradicate hunger across the world.

A portion of the dinner proceeds will go to Just Food, our event partner, and the Lord Elgin Hotel‘s Stop Hunger Foundation supporting the Ottawa Food Bank.

To learn more about JustFood programs (https://justfood.ca) and the Ottawa Food Bank (www.ottawafoodbank.ca/) and how to get involved, please visit their websites.

I am excited to feed you and our community!

With love and gratitude, Caroline
