Cultural Dinner Series
Each year the South African Wine Society (SAWS) arranges a dinner that allows its members to appreciate some of the finer points of the cuisine of our fellow Canadians. Toronto has a rich heritage. Its range of cultures and people provide a colourful quilt of neighbourhoods, often overlooked as we rush along. This event is “just dinner, with wine” and will provide the opportunity to interact with our friends before and during the evening and learn how SA wines work with the Polish food.
What is Polish Cuisine?
Polish cuisine has evolved over the centuries to become very eclectic due to Poland's history. It shares many similarities with other Slavic ethnicities, especially Czech, Slovak and Ukrainian. It is rich in meat, especially pork, chicken and beef, winter vegetables, cabbage, spices, and herbs. Generally speaking, Polish cuisine is hearty.
Our service will be “family style”. Starters are deep-fried mixed vegetables. For our meal, borscht will be followed by the main course, breaded veal cutlet, aka Vienna Schnitzel, also cheese & potato pierogi along with cabbage rolls. Vegetables include sauerkraut and roast potatoes. Our dinner will conclude with a dessert table, including coffee. The dinner is accompanied by a selection of wines from the SAWS cellar.
Join us for what promises to be an enjoyable evening. We promise that you won’t leave hungry!
