The Fork and Spoon fundraiser for the Central Okanagan Food Bank kicked off Oct. 13.
The inaugural unique dining experience challenged chefs from the Okanagan to create a nine-course gourmet dinner using ingredients available on the shelves of the Central Okanagan Food Bank.
Fermented Dining鈥檚 Cody Pollard, organizer of the event says he couldn鈥檛 have done it without all the chefs who participated and the volunteers that made the fundraiser possible. Pollard helped raise more than $20,000 for the food bank and attracted 105 diners.
鈥淚t went great, it went really well,鈥� said organizer Cody Pollard. 鈥淚t鈥檚 really great because the money is going to be used to help feed people during the winter.鈥�
