Pierogi night in photos

Tue, 30 Jun 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Twelve dozen pierogi, one very forgiving kitchen. Here is what pierogi night looked like from behind the flour cloud.

The long table mid-session: rolling pins out, aprons on, technique debates already underway.

Two trays in and the folds were finally holding. Mostly.

The part everyone actually came for: butter, onions, and the tasting line.

Two Breads and a Coffee Machine: bake-and-brew recap

Sat, 30 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000

The premise was simple: everyone brings two breads, the club brings the coffee machine.

Eighteen loaves showed up: sourdoughs with serious ears, a chocolate babka that never stood a chance, and one heroic first-ever ciabatta. The coffee machine hissed along bravely until the pour-over table stole its audience.

The butter tasting settled nothing (salted still rules, cultured is catching up fast), and the crumb-shot photo wall is already pinned in the club chat. Same time next spring, and yes, the babka baker has been asked for the recipe.

Ice cream selfie flash mob: the photo

The rules were simple: appear at the fountain by 12:55 with an ice cream (cone strongly encouraged, cup tolerated), raise it at 1:00 for one enormous group selfie, and by 1:15 pretend it never happened.

A plaza full of cones, zero melted casualties, one very confused dog walker.

Rumours of a sequel are true. Keep an eye on the events page, the crawl crew is already scouting the next backdrop.

The great poutine debate: curds matter

Tue, 28 Apr 2026 00:00:00 +0000

What began as a casual dinner turned into a ninety-minute symposium on squeak. Our conclusions: fresh curds are non-negotiable, gravy thickness is a personality trait, and fries must survive the sauce.

The cook-off in September will settle nothing, and we can’t wait.

Dessert crawl photo diary

Sun, 15 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Twelve members, five dessert stops, one shared conclusion: there is always room for one more bite.

The ube soft-serve won the day by unanimous silence, the kind that only happens when everyone’s too busy eating to talk.

Route notes and recommendations are in the club chat for anyone doing the crawl solo.
