Underground Food Market

Last weekend we celebrated our floorball team mate's 26th birthday. She had bought tickets to an Underground Food Market at the Don Valley Brick Works. From 1889 to the 1980s the Don Valley Brick Works was one of Canada’s pre-eminent brickyards. At its peak more than 43 million bricks a year were manufactured for use in the construction of homes and buildings across Canada. Nowadays it is a museum and community centre. The Toronto Underground Market is a social food market, where home cooks can showcase their products. This was the third time they organized it and the first time at the Brick Works. The place was beautiful, especially at night with all the lights. Outside was a chimney place, where they made mini pizzas and where you could buy grilled marshmallows. Inside were a lot of vendors selling their delicious home made food and drinks. We were fan of the Indian cuisine of butter chicken and chickpea with fresh naan bread.  The event was definitely worth visiting and we left with our bellies stuffed with good food.
