This Saturday, August 13th, Ubuntu Canteen is switching gears to play host to winemaker Rajen Toor, of Ursa Major Winery in the South Okanagan Valley.
Expect a night of excellent food and handmade wines, paired with good company and conversation…and poetry, being recited by the winemaker himself. If you’re familiar with Toor’s wines (some of our personal faves in BC) and their cheeky yet lyrical names, then the latter is hardly surprising, and definitely a fitting cap to the evening’s meal!
The whole thing kicks off at 6pm, with seats going for $155 each. That’s no small price tag but, all in all, we have little doubt that this will be a memorable experience, worth every penny! Decide for yourself by taking a sneak peek at the menu below:
