Fundraising Dinner at H.A.V.E. Cafe

H.A.V.E. Cafe is the store front of a culinary training program that is designed to provide the community with skills training and opportunities for employment. The acronym stands for Hope, Action, Values and Ethics. Through work, I had the pleasure to attend its very first fundraising dinner last week. This year they've kicked off a fundraising initiative called "Project 374" to raise fund for renovations and the upkeep for the school. The cafe will also be renamed to Cafe 374 soon. Why 374? The cafe/culinary school is located at 374 Powell Street, Vancouver. Chef Alex Chen, who will be representing Canada in Bocuse d'Or in Lyon in 2013, put together the menu for the evening. Chef Alex's dishes were basically a new take on the classics.
