International Cuisine Night – Chinese Food

Last week, our students traveled to the far-away land of China, where they were introduced to tasty wok-fired Asian cuisine! They worked on their fine motor skills by learning how to use chop sticks to sample dishes such as the signature orange chicken, broccoli beef, fried rice, and chow mein! They finished off the evening by talking about Chinese New Year, and breaking apart a traditional Chinese fortune cookie! Thanks to the Rice Garden for donating the delicious meal!

Breakfast for Dinner

Last night, our students spent a night out on the town, and headed to Denny’s to have breakfast for dinner. They were able to order their own meal from a selection of deliciously flavored pancake options, like salted caramel or banana berry! They demonstrated their social skills by communicating with the waiters at the restaurant, and visiting with their friends! Camp K is grateful to our staff and amazing volunteers, who provided extra help and friendly faces! Thanks to Denny’s for providing great service and delicious food!

American Cuisine Night

Oh say can you see…how much fun we had at our International Cuisine event on March 3rd, where we learned about and enjoyed American Cuisine. Ruth’s Diner provided hamburgers, fruit, pasta salad, and homemade brownies for all our fine diners. We learned about the origins of the hamburger, hot dogs, corn dogs, and of course apple pie. Everyone loved hearing that corn dogs are called “dippy dogs,” in Australia. We all said “Ewww” when we found out that the Mongols used to eat raw ground beef. We are excited for our next International Cuisine experience next week, when we will learn more about Chinese food. 

We hope to see more of you there next time!

Pizza Pie Night

Last night our participants ventured out into the community with Camp K with their friends for an all you can eat pizza and pasta dinner at the Pizza Pie Café!  They enjoyed choosing from a wide variety of pizza flavors, and got to specialize their own pastas!  They hung out and socialized with friends and members of the community, while enjoying their tasty meal.  Let’s not forget dessert!  They chose from a selection of sweet pizzas including cookie dough, apple, and oreo!  Thanks to the Pizza Pie Café in Midvale for hosting us and our generous community that embraces us wherever we go.
Please share this with any pizza lovers you know and join us next time!

 

International Cuisine Night: Greek

This week, our campers took a virtual cruise of Greece. We savored steamy kebabs, delectable rice, warm pita bread, and mouth-watering brown sugar-coated pita sticks dipped in whipped cream! Special shout out to International Pantry who donated our main course, and Spitz (Sugar House, UT) who donated our dessert. As February comes to a close, we are now prepping our taste buds for new culinary adventures in March! Next stop is close to home: American cuisine!

 

Breakfast with Mrs. Clause

On December 3rd, our students ventured out to Thanksgiving Point to have Breakfast with Santa. They had a great time meeting Santa & Mrs. Claus and the Gingerbread Man, eating breakfast, decorating cookies, and enjoying time with their friends!
