Toronto offers a variety of food events. Some, like Taste of
Toronto, are huge busy multi-day affairs featuring big names. Others, such as
Curry Fest, are smaller and serve a specific niche. This May, Christiane
Tetreault is introducing Toronto to a new event, that’s intimate yet still
offers the variety of Leslieville.
After the success of her Eastside Pop-up Markets, she’s
creating Silver Spoons, a two day
affair that will marry food, wine and art. As participants nourish their physical
and creative hunger, they can leave knowing they are helping others as well:
the event aims to raise $10,000 for Second Harvest, which will provide 20,000
meals to those in need.

Within the open industrial space, Silver Spoons will be bringing
together Leslieville restaurants, local artisans, wine tastings and craft
beers. It’s not all about the food and drinks, you can expect there to be art,
interactive digital floor games, and music (live and DJ) to dance the calories
away.

I’m looking forward to this new event and hope to discover
and support local businesses. When
Silver Spoons tweeted that Sandy Aleksander would be one of the vendors, the
promise of salty and spicy charcuterie already got me salivating.

In the end, it’s also great to know that after I leave full,
Silver Spoons will be donating a portion of ticket and art sales plus all the
silent auction proceeds to Second Harvest. If you want to join me, grab some
friends and get your tickets below. Cheers!
