There was an event last night that brought together some of the most generous people in this community. At the Celebration of Excellence ceremony, a select group of volunteers were recognized for their enormous contributions. A full list of the finalists can be found at http://www.deeprooted.ca/scvolunteer/default.aspx
It was a truly inspiring evening. There are a lot of do-gooders out there!
Along with nine other businesses, Shining Sage Catering dished out food at the Gibsons Recreation Center. Here is the menu and some pictures:
Yam, edamame, and pea shoot with roasted garlic-ginger sauce
Rice paper roll with spring mix, shrimp, cucumber and sesame-miso sauce
Roasted apple with medjool date and candied pistachio
The rice paper roll was filled with very local ingredients. The Spring mix was from Dawn at Backyard Bounty CSA, the shrimp are locally caught, and the cucumber is from Rosendaal Farms.
i was one of the finalists last night and your food was FABULOUS. I am so glad I got to do some tasting!
