Are you living the keto lifestyle, but wondering if you'll ever get to enjoy a night on the town again? Natural Food Pantry has a special event for you! Join us on Thursday Jan 31 at The Natural Cafe within the NFP Barrhaven location for a 3-course keto 'fancy dinner' with a delectable menu featuring low-carb, keto-friendly foods prepared by our very own chef, Bruce Enloe.
The evening begins at 6:15pm with a 'mocktail hour' and appetizers such as avocados with organic bacon, quesadilla pinwheels on our popular keto wraps and crispy Yorkshire turkey spears with remoulade.
A seated dinner will follow with a bone broth and konjac noodle soup, reverse seared grass fed beef cutlets served over cauliflower and gorgonzola gratin with grilled green beans.
No night out would be complete without dessert! To end the evening, we will serve a rich and decadent chocolate cake to satisfy your sweet tooth, prepared by our incredible baker Nella Mahfouz.
Your host for the evening will be Keto Goddess Genevieve Castonguay, who will speak briefly about the menu and the joys of living a keto lifestyle.
A sugarless 'mocktail pairing' for each course will be offered as well, created by our in house cafe barista Nikki Ouellette.
