Many of us are working from home the past week, struggling to entertain our kids, queuing long line up at supermarkets or just tired from cooking at home everyday. While we are practicing social distancing, there are various food delivery services and online groceries to help us during this chaotic time. Below are promo codes to help you skip the line ups and support local businesses.

This list is updated as information becomes available. If you are a delivery service or grocer and want to be added, please contact me at nomss[DOT]home@gmail.com.

Not everyone has time to drive out to the butcher. truLOCAL lets you shop for clean, locally sourced meat products online, and our convenient delivery means fewer trips to the grocery store! I love supporting local farmers and butchers, but I love it, even more, when it comes directly from the source (in your region). All the suppliers are very transparent about how the animals are raised and some are traceable. Also, because I live in BC, my truLOCAL box features products from local producers like Farmcrest, Ogopogo, Organic Ocean, Two Rivers, Hopcott Farms, Georels, etc. They were even recently featured on Dragons’ Den!

A total Canadian classic cocktail is the ultimate Caesar cocktail. It is a classic and totally crushable. It goes well over brunch and has the snack built right in! It’s Clamato juice based with a hit of vodka with the whole shebang of flavour and spice from ingredients like Worcestershire sauce, horseradish and hot sauce!

 

With over 418 million Caesars consumed in Canada last year, it’s no wonder us Canucks calls the Caesar a good Canada’s national cocktail!

Harvest Community Foods (or as I like to refer to Harvest Union) is a local grocer servicing the Chinatown-Strathcona neighbourhood at 243 Union St. The grocery and food shop began is a community project (This Space), in which a public vote determined the use of the site. Harvest also offers an innovative chef-crafted CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) shares of bi-weekly seasonal farm produce (available year round, multiple weeks or an entire season).

Chef and Partner Gabriella Meyer and Owner Andrea Carlson from Burdock & Co. creates a neighbourly environment that is casual, warm and captures the essence of farm to table dining in a cafe setting.

Harvest  carries local foods and products and offers a delicious, healthy noodle menu filled with a variety of fresh vegetables and meats. The broth is rich and not greasy. You leave filling full but not stuffed. I love the variety of hearty ingredients and the pork shoulder is SO tender!

#29: Ramen with squash, miso broth, nori, scallion, radish, and sesame. It is a vegetarian noodle bowl. But for me, I added some pork shoulder and am ajitama egg to my ramen. Let’s be real here!

 

#17: Udon with sake kazu chicken, watercress and shitake mushrooms.

Next time, I really need to try their dry noodle #31 with rice noodle and hazelnut, smoked chilli and greens.
