Close up of The Wilcox Gastropub menu

Tuesday, March 24, 2015
6:30 p.m. – 8:30 p.m.
The Wilcox Gastropub
30 Eglinton Avenue West, Mississauga, ON

Join us for Dinner with 12 Strangers at The Wilcox Gastropub, a brand-new place nestled in central Mississauga. Sit down to dinner with 12 strangers and leave with 12 new University of Toronto Mississauga alumni connections.  You'll even meet restaurant co-owner and UTM alumnus Joseph Le.

Similar to The Wilcox, we intend to bring together and host people who are drawn to the art of gastronomy and drink. From a prix fixe menu, enjoy an appetizer, entree, dessert and a glass of wine while meeting others from the UTM community.

This event is sold out.

$30 per person. Tickets must be purchased online in advance and are non-refundable.
