Food Options: Beverage, Dairy Free (no milk, cheese, butter), Fish, Gluten Free, Halal, Keto Friendly, Meat, Vegan, Vegetarian (no meat; may include dairy/eggs), The boxes checked reflect what we typically offer at louf, based on our regular menu. We’ll confirm the categories once our offerings are finalized!
ON Garlic Supplier: To be Confirmed
Our Story: From the moment we opened in November 2024, sourcing our ingredients sustainably and locally has been a value deeply rooted in everything we do at louf. We work closely with farmers, brewers, and distillers across Ontario to bring in seasonal produce, ethically raised meat, and sustainable products that shape everything from the dishes we serve to the cocktails we craft. They are paired with Palestinian sourced imports such as olive oil, spices, and za’atar, creating a menu that bridges cultures and brings together the flavours of Palestine with the richness of Canada. Every ingredient we source from Ontario reflects a connection to the communities around us, and a shared commitment to nourishing one another.
“I very much believe that louf has its place among all the restaurants in Toronto, bringing together the flavours of Palestine, the stories of Palestine, and the exceptional products that we are sourcing in Ontario as well as from Palestine,” said Chef Fadi Kattan.
Here are just some of the ingredients we source from Canadian farmers and producers, which we would love to feature in our booth offerings:

Food Options: Dessert using garlic (including black garlic), Vegan
ON Garlic Supplier: not sure yet. we plan on purchasing from our closest farmer's market, Sorauren. Since we typically never make desserts with garlic, we haven't looked for a garlic supplier yet
Our Story: we buy fresh produce from 100km foods as our local supplier. Occasionally we have purchased produce via our customers who have friends or relatives with local or regional farms, but it's been informal that we don't have names reserved. Thankfully they are usually repeat customers so we've been able to purchase again.

Our Story: We keep our ingredients as local as we can. We source our green lentils from Ontario's only lentil farm Lau tea da lentils near Guelph. Usually, they only grow out west. We source our garlic locally with Kings Creek Garlic and purchasing at other garlic festivals we attend so trying out different farms. Then we dehydrate it ourselves. We purchase locally grown items like peppers, carrots, beans, corn and tomatoes from our fellow farmers market vendors (all local) and dehydrate those ourselves. Our barley, kidney beans, pinto beans and quinoa all grow in the prairie provinces. We are proud to source locally and Canadian. Soup's on!
