A Delicious Protest: Slow Food Iowa City’s Time for Lunch Eat-In PDF Print E-mail

Tomato asiago frittata, quinoa tabouleh with French lentils, ratatouille with homegrown eggplants, Tuscan wheatberry salad, skillet cornbread, broccoli raisin salad, sweet potatoes with lemon basil, homemade applesauce, Indian curd rice, apple pie with caramel crisp, giant shiny golden snail-shaped loaves of challah…selections from the menu of a new local restaurant? 

Nope. 

These and other delicious potluck offerings featuring local ingredients, sustainably produced and lovingly prepared by parents, kids, and other food-centric citizens, turned the City Park shelter #12 picnic tables into groaning boards of goodness during the first annual Slow Food Iowa City Time for Lunch Eat-In this Labor Day.
