விருந்து - Tamil Feasts

விருந்து Tamil Feasts is a social enterprise supporting recently settled asylum seekers through the celebration of food and culture. Serving up traditional Sri Lankan fare prepared by Tamil men currently seeking asylum in Australia, these thrice-weekly feasts create a context in which the cooks are able to share the food heritage of their Sri Lankan homeland with the wider community.

This unique enterprise simultaneously creates a space in which Australians are able to show their support of individuals who are presently undergoing the difficult experience of seeking refuge in a foreign land – all the while partaking in some seriously tasty food!

Diners feast upon a traditional banquet of curries, chutneys, vadai, dahl, and masalas made by proud Tamil cooks Nirma, Niro, Nigethan and Richman. It is a unique opportunity to experience the vibrant colour, spice and flavour of authentic Tamil cuisine—rarely found outside Sri Lanka.

Feasts are served on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday nights out of the Merri Table Cafe (CERES) at 7:00pm. These three-course feasts are a slamming deal for only $30/$35. Kiddos-sized feast plates (without the spice!) are valued at $20. Bubs join in the fun for free! With an ever-changing menu, no two feasts are the same!

Tamil Feasts have a limited capacity and are pre-book only! Book now @ http://ceres.org.au/tamil-feasts/
