written by John Chow upon Dec 24th, 2009
Christmas came early for residents of the Downtown Eastside as the Union Gospel Mission as well as Glowbal Restaurant Group got together to set the table for 2000. The eventuality took place upon Wednesday outward the UGM building upon Princess Street between Hastings as well as Cordova. The menu featured hand-carved honey glazed ham, oven roasted beef frame loin with traditional gratifying gravy, buttered vegetables with fresh herbs, roasted-garlic mashed potatoes, fresh-baked buns, pasta as well as chocolate mousse tarts.
The Downtown Eastside is the poorest area in all of Canada. we grew up in this neighborhood. As the matter of fact, the residence we grew up in is right opposite the travel from the UGM. Its been utterly the tour to contend the least. The British Properties of West Vancouver (my current home) is far removed from the the Downtown Eastside but we will never dont think about where we came from. Congrats to Glowbal as well as UGM for helping to bring the suggestion of Yuletide to who who unequivocally need it.
Glowbal unequivocally went out of their way to have this Yuletide the single to remember for the without the country as well as inspired of Vancouver. The tent was big sufficient to reason 700 people per seating as well as was flashy with gratifying Yuletide trees as well as lights. Guests were serenaded by carolers as well as the Vancouver Firefighters Band. At the end of the meal, guest were since the stocking full of small gifts for Christmas. To take the dining experience to the subsequent level, the goal set up the cheuffer shopping transport use as well as the SPCA was there to caring of the dogs. The without the country were means to enjoy their dish knowing they wouldnt have to be concerned about their effects or pets.
An eventuality similar to this is the good sign upon the loyal meaning of Christmas. Too often, we take what we have for postulated as well as dont think about that there are most people less fortunate afterwards us. For 2000 who sat down to eat, this was their first ever excellent dining experience. Here are some photos of the event. The UGM uploaded the garland more to their Facebook page. If youre not the air blower yet, we should turn one. Merry Christmas!
