Meatball & Co. to dish up balls of glory for two days at 337 E. Hastings

The next pop-up in the 337 Series to take place April 10th and 11th

It’s hard to imagine a dish more universal than the humble meatball. Since first being documented in Turkey roughly 4000 years ago, meatballs and their variations have appeared in almost every country and every cuisine. From Chinese wanzi to Portuguese almôndegas, from classic Italian Meatballs and Swedish köttbullar, meatballs have been on dinner tables all over the world for hundreds of years.

Meatball & Co. is popping up for two days at 337 East Hastings to pay homage to the meatball. Inspired by a recent food hunting trip to New York City, Chef Karl Gregg has created menu which features a trio of classic meatball recipes made using locally-sourced meats, and five comforting sauces made from scratch.

With classic Italian beef, spicy Asian-inspired pork and chicken pepperanata meatballs to choose from and sauces ranging from a simple tomato basil to a spicy sweet & sour sauce, the menu allows for 60 different combinations of meatball, sauce, side and presentation. The menu also includes a dessert option for those with a sweet tooth: Chocolate Salted Balls (profiteroles with a salted caramel and chocolate sauce).

Dinner is $22 per person, and includes either a classic meatball dinner with sauce and side, or meatball sliders and fries. Every dinner includes a beer or glass of sangria and, to quench deeper thirsts, beer and sangria will be available along with wines from The Hatch, an exciting new winery based in West Kelowna.

Meatball & Co. will be open for two days for eat-in service only on April 10th and 11th. The balls of glory will be served up nightly from 6:30PM-late. Reservations can be made at http://337series.com or by emailing 337series@nullgmail.com.
