Menu for Week of May 17 – May 22, 2021

Our hours are changing slightly this week for the summer season. We will only be open until 2 PM on a Wednesday as opposed to 6 PM.

Monday – Closed

Tuesday – Closed (for prep)

Wednesday – 11 – 2 (Grab N Go lunch available)

Thursday – 11 – 6 (Lunch & Supper)

Friday – 11-6 (Lunch & Supper)

Saturday – 11 – 6 On Saturdays, we offer homemade flakies, buttertarts, slurpie Saturdays and our Outdoor Market Grill, where Chef Casey will be cooking a Lunch Feature from our grill from 11-4 pm.

Pre-orders for our lunches and suppers are always recommended; as you know, we have a zero food-waste policy here in the kitchen, and Chef Casey personally shops for and hand picks every single ingredient for use in our kitchen, buying only what is necessary for that week’s menu and a bit extra in case of last minute orders. But that’s it…when it’s gone, IT IS GONE. To avoid disappointment, please feel free to reserve your dishes early – not only does it ensure you get the meal you are looking for; it also helps with our meal prep and shopping trips.

WE’VE GOT YOUR BBQ NEEDS COVERED:

Fresh Market Kitchen is pleased to remind you that our BBQ @ Home Packs are available for pickup from our Market Kitchen. In addition to our succulent Coconut Curry Chicken Skewers (all breast meat, dairy-free and gluten-free), this week we brought back our Chicken Souvlaki Skewers (all breast meat, dairy-free and gluten-free)!  As always, our Triple B Burgers (beef brisket and bacon, GF) and our Classic 1/2 LB Beef patties will also be available! We also have frozen kaisers from our favourite Italian bakery in packs of 4 available. Click this link to get there quickly…https://freshmarketkitchen.ca/product-category/bbq-at-home/

All Things Bagel!

We love that you are enjoying the handmade bagels we carry from The Bagel Oven based in Beamsville, Ontario. This is a family-run business that specializes in handmade authentic Jewish bagels. To complement your bagels, we are also offering European cream cheese and delicious homemade hummus. Chef Casey makes her hummus with dried chick peas and the highest quality tahini available. If you know you’d like a larger volume of bagels for the week ahead, please get in touch asap so we can preorder those for you from The Bagel Oven and have them delivered fresh to our kitchen just for you for pickup Saturday. In the meantime, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday (while supplies last), shop our Market Kitchen and purchase freshly-frozen bagels for your home and save $1 per bag! You will find out what is in stock currently in our freezer and reserve yours for convenient pickup here…https://freshmarketkitchen.ca/product-category/bagelsandtarts/

We are offering single toasted bagels with our European cream cheese – available 11 AM – 2:00 PM Wednesday through Saturday. Grab a delicious and quick bite on the go! $3.50 each.

Get Caffeinated at Fresh Market Kitchen!

Fresh Market Kitchen has teamed up with Altitude Coffee Roasters to proudly bring you fair trade, organic ground brew-at-home coffee that is roasted in Vienna, Ontario. Altitude Coffee Roasters constantly gives back to local communities and are committed to being an environmental champion in their industry while pledging to roast only the highest quality beans and provide only the freshest coffee. You can browse our selection and reserve yours online through our website here: https://freshmarketkitchen.ca/product-category/at-home-coffee/ We are so thrilled with the quality of these coffees that we are exclusively serving Altitude Coffee Roasters’ brewed coffee in our Market Kitchen. Drop in and try a cup for yourself. We can even brew you a decaf latte or cappuccino from our cappuccino machine!!!

Other Refreshing and Fun Beverages

Birthday Cake and Java Chip Frappuccinos!  A Frappuccino is a blended ice beverage. Refreshing as heck and can be made with milk substitutions such as coconut milk, soy beverage and almond milk (hold the whip)!  Try a Java Chip, made with our housemade coffee ice cubes and chocolate or a birthday cake frappuccino. We also make our own lemonade and have a really refreshing Passion Tea Lemonade.

Currently available Saturdays only in three flavours (Ontario Peach, Quebec Wild Blueberry, Raspberry) are our homemade Flakies – these are are generously filled with our housemade vanilla whipped cream with a lovely sprinkling of powdered sugar.  As we never make our whipped cream with animal-based stabilizers thus maintaining a vegetarian food item, these are only offered on a Saturday, but we will do our best to allow preorders of Flakies. 

Yesterday was our first offering of the Saturday BBQ Lunch, featuring our Greek Old Fashioned House Burger served 12-2 pm.  The weather cooperated and didn’t blow us sideways off our corner outside. This Saturday, again provided the weather is not extreme, Chef Casey will be at the outdoor grill.  Reservations are not necessary, however, probably a good idea to avoid disappointment.  So grab yourself a delicious beverage, a buttertart or two (or six? we don’t judge and, hey, why not get 6 and save the tax!) or a housemade Flakie and stay for lunch!  Although we don’t have outside seating, there is on-street parking and I’m pretty sure most of us are getting pretty used to dining “en-auto” with the ever-changing Covid restrictions. 

Saturdays are shaping up to be pretty exciting days in our Market Kitchen – plan your weekly shop around our market and be sure to stop by.  It is always #worththedrivetoselkirk

We have fancies arriving from our French Patissier this Thursday, and he has promised to make us some gorgeous GF options! We are also going to try to make some more cheesecake in a jar and homemade ice cream this week – Chef Casey has suffered an injury and will do her best to keep up with the demand.

Here is what we are cooking this week at Fresh Market Kitchen – family style with style and always from scratch!
