Dreams really do come true


So the news that I have been hinting at the last couple of months? Guess where I am? In my own restaurant kitchen!! 

I have been working on this for the last nine months..getting everything together. I am opening a small neighborhood restaurant in Halifax. It is going to be wonderful..tasty, fresh and fully VEGAN! I can hardly wait to get back into the swing of it!

Crazy to think back to my first post on Kirsten's Kitchen! Wow its been a journey to get to this point...but I am HERE and so happy! I will keep you updated on the progress of the renovations I am doing.

So with great pleasure I will open the doors to Wild Leek Food & Juice Bar this May!
