Dear all, attached are the details of an event we are holding on the 20th March, in Falmouth . Hosted at the Greenbank Hotel in Falmouth with Head Chef, Prosenjit Kumar, a champion of sourcing local produce which supports a wealth of small local businesses. Prosenjit trained with Raymond Blanc and was formerly Chef in Charge to HRH King Fahad of Saudi Arabia .
Our next book is Heat by Bill Buford. This is a book that promises to take us back into the frenzy of the professional kitchen, so I hope you enjoy it. It also has the subtitle " An amateur's adventures as kitchen slave, line cook, pasta-maker, and apprentice to a Dante-quoting butcher in Tuscany." What's not to like about that?
We will meet as usual in the Summertown Wine Cafe.
The book is Portrait of a Chef: the Life of Alexis Soyer by Helen Morris. Unfortunately, it is out of print, but can be obtained used from Amazon and other sources. Please join us for a discussion of Soyer, a nineteenth-century celebrity chef, author, inventor and campaigner to improve hospital kitchens in Crimea.
We will meet as usual in the Summertown Wine Cafe.
