By the beginning of March, the Vancouver Oxford and Cambridge Society are counting on some material number of members and guests being ready for the scents and flavours of the Levant.

Food will be served “family style,” with sharing dishes brought to the table, including both hot and cold dishes, most of which will be vegetarian — good news for anyone still living by the obvious New Year’s resolution — but with a carnivore option as well!

The menu will be :

• Hummus Najib’s Special Cauliflower Chicken Kebab
• Taboullah Mjada Lentils Lamb Kafta
• Fattoush Salad Aubergine Stew Grilled Prawns
• Pickled Cabbage Halloumi Cheese
• Mixed Olives Vegetable Kebab 
• Macedonian Feta
• Pita Bread
