Multicultural Cooking Series a Hit

Series sold out for its debut

   The launch of the Multicultural Cooking Series was an astounding success as the Atlantic Superstore Community Room was filled to capacity for a night of Persian Cuisine and Culture on July 21st.  There was such a high demand for tickets, that the Colchester Immigration Partnership of CoRDA is considering holding a second evening of Persian Cuisine. 

    Members of the Truro Persian community, Flora Riyahi, Tara Winship and Nova Scotia Agricultural College student Maryam Moghaddam were the evenings hosts and did a superb job of providing participants with a unique look into Persian culture.  Participants were treated to an evening of Persian music, Persian dance, Persian story telling and of course Persian food.  Menu items included Kashk-e Baademjan, Polow, Khoreshte Fesenjan and Baklava.
