Kimchi has been growing in popularity in Toronto for a while now, but that’s not stopping a kimchi-themed bus from spreading its gospel here. The kimchi bus is a project from three young Korean university students who have set out on a kimchi-sharing mission, covering 38 countries in 400 days. Their next stop is at George Brown College’s Centre for Hospitality and Culinary Arts tomorrow.
The students have been traveling the world in a bus (one that’s equipped with a special kimchi refrigerator) and sharing their favorite food (kimchi, naturally) with the world.
According to the website, the goal is “to create the opportunity for people to rediscover kimchi and to change people’s perception that it is just a spicy side dish.”
The bad news is that only George Brown students and media will have access to the kimchi bus when it hits town. Still, the fact that fermented cabbage can inspire a worldwide tour is pretty awesome.
