The Food Centre

I had a leisurely morning hanging out with the dogs and harvesting green beans and raspberries from Trixie’s yard while she worked from home. As lunchtime approached, we set off for The Food Centre where Charles volunteers. The Food Centre is a community gathering place where meals and groceries are provided at low or no cost. I enjoyed sitting there, eating lunch, and getting a sense of how the place buzzes. Most of the patrons were retirees and many of them knew one another. After eating, Charles took us on a tour of the facility.

As for lunch, we had a Christmas chicken roast, a steak sandwich, and chicken satay prepared by a Thai volunteer chef. I met many of the staff and volunteers there, including the Thai chef who hails from the Don Muang area of Bangkok where I used to work.もっと詳しく
