While at T&T Supermarket down on Cherry Street last weekend I picked up a postcard for the Downtown Waterfront Night Market. Times are 6pm-midnight Friday and Saturday 5pm-10pm Sunday, THIS weekend, August 6-8.
Highlights
- Main stage – 2 evenings of world cultural performances
- Over 60 vendor booths
- Cooking Demonstrations
- Evening Glow car show on Saturday
- Outdoor food extravaganza
- Prize giveaways
If the location is a challenge for you, there are shuttle buses from six downtown locations, all TTC accessible, including City Hall, Chinatown, Harbourfront and Union Station.
I might check it out on Saturday night.
Other food events this weekend
The Toronto Festival of Beer (Exhibition Place), Taste of the Danforth and the Toronto Turkish Festival (Yonge Dundas Square). I’ll skip the Taste of the Danforth, might make it to the Festival of Beer on Sunday, and Saturday afternoon might see a visit to the Turkish Festival. My current plan for Saturday includes a visit to Culinarium because I have an afternoon appointment in the neighbourhood. I’m rarely over there.
In other news
The Eglinton location of The Healthy Butcher (@healthybutcher on Twitter) will be giving out free pastries from The Sweet Escape (@sweetescapes). I may or may not go. I also may or may not be eating vegan/raw this weekend up until Sunday dinner.
Either way, there will be some good eating this weekend and as a result of it.
Eat well, be well.
