ZT: The only chance to find all 18 food carts and trucks rolling onto Ottawa streets in one place this summer is at city hall this Wednesday at a showcase of the great new eats.
“It will be interesting to get the full impression of what will be available without having to trek through downtown,” said Tarek Hassan, whose steamed Chinese bun cart Gōngfu bao will set up at the corner of Elgin and Slater St. “A lot of the vendors are excited to meet each other.”
Hosted by Food Network personality Eat St. host James Cunningham, Ottawa’s Street Food Showcase will offer up the tastes of 10 of the new food flavours.
“It will be the fun kind of chaos,” said city councillor Mark Taylor, of the crowds of people the carts will bring to the urban core when they hit the streets this Friday, adding that he isn’t going to eat breakfast on Wednesday so that he can sample each of the 10 tastes on offer.
For $10, visitors will be able to sample as much as they like at the launch, with all the proceeds going to the Shepherds of Good Hope. This is the first time since 1996 that the city has given out new street vendor licenses.
“We’ve really come into our own in Ottawa in terms of being an epicurean culture,” he said, noting that the Street Vending Program that brought in the new tastes was started last fall by the city with a mind to bring food culture out of the restaurants and into the streets.
“I’m using the steam bun as a medium and going from there,” said Hassan, a veteran of eateries such as Sidedoor and Savana Café, whose steamed bun creations known as baos include a maple berkshire char siu bao and shanghai grilled cheese jian-bao.
“I’m taking local and quite exquisite ingredients that are available here and melding them with a traditional filling,” he said. “It’s kind of a big deal since, for the last 20 years, Ottawa has only had street meat and poutine.”
Ottawa’s Street Food Showcase comes to city hall Wednesday, May 8. Tickets are $10.
