Cooking the Books

Our first book club meeting!

A delightful evening centred on discussing books all about food, while feasting on a three course menu based on the recipes from the book of the month. Different wines will be paired with each course.

We want this book club to be accessible to everyone no matter how much or how little time they have, so it is encouraged but not mandatory to have read the whole book. If you have read articles or consumed content surrounding the book and its themes and have opinions and insights to share, you are more than welcome to join!

The read for February will be Laura Esquivel’s “Like Water For Chocolate”. Book Your Tickets Here.
