Happy Ramadan Everyone!
Newcomer Kitchen will be taking a break for the month of June for Ramadan. Newcomer Kitchen will be back in action starting Thursday, July 13
During this time of reflection, I think of those who cannot share it with their friends and families, and my heart goes out to them.
The notion of generosity, charity and feeding others is fundamental to Ramadan. The tradition of Zakat al Fitir requires every Muslim to feed another on the morning of Eid.
“As long as you have food, shelter, and clothes that day than you must provide for someone else who doesn’t have these things. This way everyone eats the morning of Eid. Nobody goes hungry.”

Newcomer Kitchen is a new project that invites groups of Syrian refugee women to use our kitchen to cook traditional Syrian dishes in a fun, social setting. Meals are prepared and packaged, and then sold online for pickup or delivery to pay for all the ingredients and provide an honorarium for the cooks.
Meals are available for pickup from The Depanneur, 1033 College Street
(between Dufferin & Dovercourt) from 6–7pm on every Thursday
Meals go on sale each week on Monday nights.
