Iglu Donairs and the Ikurraq Food Bank teamed up to serve 150 couples a caribou steak dinner for Valentine’s Day.

A blizzard meant the event actually happened Feb. 15.

Thanks to generous sponsors, the food bank was also able to host several social media games in the run-up to the takeout dinner.

The event also served as an early test for Iglu Donairs, which opened Jan. 30 in the Agnico Eagle Arena.
