Ethnic Food

This time we're trying something new by hosting a dinner at Ketkoot in Mississauga. Here's what to expect: • We will start at 6:30 PM on July 1st to sit down and order dinner together. • You can check out their menu here https://ketkoot.ca/menu/ • They don’t take reservations but I plan on going early and getting a table. If we don’t get one, we can explore a nearby option. • Everyone pays for their own meal. They are ok to have separate bills. • If you have specific allergies or dietary needs, please call the restaurant directly to confirm they can accommodate you. • If your plans change, please cancel at least a day before so we can adjust seating. • Limited to 8 seats only this time. This is a relaxed, social evening-come by, meet new people, and enjoy some Iraqi Fusion food together.
