Come and share the insights and recipes of leading chefs and renowned food writers as they explore how the production, preparation, and consumption of food bring meaning to our lives. Local chefs Andrea Reusing of Lantern and Bill Smith of Crooks Corner will be joined by food memoirists Kim Sunée and Jessica Harris to discuss how food binds families, defines identities, and marks the milestones—happy and sad—of our lives. Moderated by novelist Randall Kenan, the discussion will be lively and entertaining. Can a life’s narrative be contained in a recipe box? Does barbecue reveal the meaning of life or does pizza? Can cake solve all problems? Join us and find out.
Tickets are $100 per person. Drinks and appetizers included.
