Foodie Book Club - Third Edition

For the third edition of our Foodie Book Club we are reading Love & Saffron by Kim Fay. In addition to the discussion, there will be a small menu inspired by the book. As a chef and avid reader, this club is my way of combining the two great passions in my life and in doing so, I hope to create a like-minded community that meets up to celebrate multiple perspectives and varying tastes!

For this book club, we return to our previous venue - Atelier.968 (you can follow them on Instagram @atelier.968). It's a beautiful space that doubles as a ceramic studio and also holds sewing classes. Maria the owner has very kindly offered her space to us for a minimal fee, which can be paid on the day of the event by cash or MBway.

According to GoodReads, "Love & Saffron is a witty and tender novel that follows two women in 1960s America as they discover that food really does connect us all, and that friendship and laughter are the best medicine...Food and a good life--they can't be separated. It is a discovery the women share, not only with each other, but with the men in their lives. A brief respite from our chaotic world, Love & Saffron is a gem of a novel, a reminder that food and friendship are the antidote to most any heartache, and that human connection will always be worth creating."

We can't wait to dig in :)

You can choose to read the book or hear the audio version (or just come for the food and discussion :)) No pressure!
