His 2013 TEDx talk spoke movingly about his own childhood experience of hunger and poverty while growing up in a Toronto housing project. Click here to watch his talk.   Toronto's most popular sushi-making class\, Sushi Making For The Soul\, was founded by Sang Kim in 2008 to offer a fun approach to food literacy through the simple art of making sushi. He has taught thousands of "chefs"\, including hundreds of children in schools\, libraries and in his own restaurants.   The classes are being offered at Windup Bird Cafe on Saturday September 20th\, 3pm-5pm and Saturday October 4th\, 3pm-5pm. Only 30 spots are available per class. It is based on a first-come\, first-serve basis.    The children will make 3 rolls\, two vegetarian and one seafood (all vegetarian is available)\, which they also get to eat after they make it. It is a great learning experience\, lots of fun and great food.   Come and watch him compete against nineteen top Toronto chefs\, including the Executive Chef of Windup Bird Cafe\, Yumiko Kobayashi\, in Action Against Hunger Canada's Love Food Fest Chef Challenge\, to be held at Wychwood Barns on Tuesday October 7th\, a spectacular food fundraising event in support of this great international organization.   He will also be conducting a sushi making class at St. Lawrence Market during the week-long Toronto Foundation For Student Success (TFSS) event\,Feed Tomorrow\, an awareness campaign for student hunger and nutrition programs.    If you would like to register your child to a class\, please email events@windupbird.ca.

In these two-hour classes\, children will learn how to make a simple 3-course meal and eat it here\, bringing home a little cookbook so they can recreate the meal at home.

Windup Bird Café offered a branch to perch on while singing their stories and savouring the delicious meals created chef Yumiko Kobayashi.  Now we've started something special. We're actively searching for the great storytellers of Toronto to feature on our stage\, where they can share\, listen\, and captivate. That means we're searching for you. If you have a story to tell\, email us a three (3) line pitch for your ten (10) minute story to storysubmissions@windupbird.ca based on this month's theme (GHOST STORIES). Please include your contact information so we can get back to you promptly. We can't wait to hear from you.  A note on Ghost stories: Think of stories told around the campfire\, of eerie encounters with spirits\, of how you connected with the world beyond death\, of a haunting experience unknown\, strange and beckoning. Ghost stories are any which deal with spirits\, not just the scary ones\, so let Toronto hear yours.    We are building this nest with new and old stories and tellers.  Feel free to fly over during the evening and chirp with us.      URL:http://windupbird.ca/event/boaf-ghost-stories/ LOCATION:382 College St., Toronto, ON, Canada CATEGORIES:LITERARY & CULTURAL END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
