Acclaimed locavore chef, David Gunawan’s waste-not, want-not culinary values come into focus this fall with a duo of Ugly Duckling Dinners at Royal Dinette on Oct. 20 and Nov. 24 that will feature underutilized, often disposed scraps and offcuts in a delicious five-course menu with beverage pairings. Tickets are available online at www.royaldinette.ca for $79 per person, plus tax and gratuity.
