New Store Hours for Fall

Starfish of wonder

Well September is just around the corner, summer is nearly over and no I did not get enough swims in this year! I did manage some swims with the kids at the lake during the hot hot heat days, but with 3 kids I spent more time wading around the shallows than actually swimming. I just can’t believe how fast this incredibly busy summer has flown by. Still, I find myself loving the falling leaves, the colder nights and the overall anticipation of another great season, Autumn.

With new seasons come new store hours. Please take note, Zen Zero will be closing daily at 5pm as of September 1st.

Enjoy these last few weeks of summer and we’ll see you down at the Zen Corner!

Zen Zero is Open:
Monday to Saturday 8am – 5pm
Sundays 10am – 4pm

Yay Vegan Dine Out!

Tags:, .

Italian theme Vegan Dine Out food shotA huge thanks to Bob at Earthsave for organizing tonight’s Vegan Dine Out at Zen Zero.  The food was great and the company was even better.  We feel inspired enough to consider doing a dine-out once a month with a different themed menu each time.  What do you think about that?  Leave a comment, introduce yourselves and let us know if you would be interested in a monthly dine-out at Zen Zero…

Vegan Dine Out

Tags:.

P5010033This month’s Earthsave Vegan Dine Out is at Zen Zero this Sunday August 23rd!  Call Bob to reserve your seat at 250-338-0571.  There will be two sittings, one at 5pm and another at 6:30pm.  The menu will be all raw.  The main course is Kelp Noodles with creamy herb cashew sauce served with a caesar salad.  Don’t let the name “kelp” scare you.  Kelp noodles are in fact made from the highly nutritious sea kelp, but they are also highly delicious with no salty sea taste whatsoever.  In fact they resemble that of your average vermicelli noodle.  Perfect for those with gluten free diets as well as those only eating raw vegan foods.

Have you ever had a raw pie before?  Well if you haven’t, and heck even if you have, you are in for a real treat.  Kyla’s famous chocolate raspberry bliss cake is on the dessert menu and it’s to die for, but it won’t kill you, in fact it’s actually good for you!

Kid’s will be feasting on the kelp noodles and a rather remarkable strawberry pudding for dessert.

There will be apple orange punch in place of coffee and tea.

All this for $15 including taxes.  Kids are just $8.  Call Bob now as space is limited.

Dinner will be served by your lovely Zen Zero owners.  Can’t wait to see you all there!

Perfect Festival weather combined with fabulous music, excellent food and a family friendly atmosphere made this year’s The Big Time Out a smashing success in my books!  My kids loved dancing and spent a fair amount of time in the very impressive kids area.  Oh and smoothie sales were off the charts!  Can’t wait til year!
