Attention lovers of poutine, BBQ, dessert and all kinds of mouthwatering treats! Ottawa Street North will be a culinary street heaven this Saturday, May 13.
Marking 10 years of festivities, Sew Hungry, Hamilton’s annual restaurant and food truck rally, is returning from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m.
Come with an empty stomach — coconut wasabi chicken soft taco, anyone? — and get ready to enjoy live roots fusion, country, rock, soul and more music while checking out the 33 food trucks, three outdoor beer gardens, markets, as well as more than 100 restaurants and shops along Ottawa Street North.
Sew Hungry and the Putman Family YWCA will be hosting a sidewalk sale featuring women and non-binary vendors from YWCA Hamilton programs and the community.
