Hot Yam's local organic goodness
Monday, 06 October 2008

 Hot Yam is a University of Toronto student-run, all vegan, mostly local and organic, four dollar lunch party! It is happening again this school year at 33 St George St (north of College) every Wednesday, noon-2pm.

This Wednesday there is a special event. Check out Eat Local! Oct 8th, 2008 from noon-4pm! It takes place at Hot Yam:

"Featuring a FREE delicious lunch that's vegan and mostly local and organic! Take home some free sprout seeds and recipe cards, and check out displays from organizations that support local foods! Attend a speaker's series and engage in the local food discussion and support local farmers by checking out our mini farmer's market!"

In the above photo, three students enjoy the Oct 1st menu of stuffed peppers, garden salad, "groovy" grapes and Selamine baked squares (a tasty grainy dessert).
