Slow Food Seattle Book Club - Upcoming Meetings
Interesting in chatting with fellow food and book lovers? Come to the Slow Food Seattle Book Club! Scheduled every other month on the second Thursday, it's free, open to members and non-members alike, and a great way to connect with other people who also love the intersection of the literary and culinary world.
Here's the schedule for the next three meetings. Location details for May and July yet to be determined, but this will give us all time to start reading the books!
Thu, March 13, 7pm: Feeding a Yen by Calvin Trillin. We are meeting at Roy Street Coffee and Tea in the small room. The book is a collection of food essays previously published in the New Yorker. So, not sure if you have time to read a whole book in time? Just read the ones you have time for and we can chat about what each of us got to. This collection contains one of the Slow Food's board member's absolute favorite pieces of food writing ever, "Don't Mention It" about Shopsin's in NYC. Really pressed for time? Just read that essay and come talk to us about it! We will be in the small room at Roy Street Coffee and Tea. RSVP here!
Thu, May 8, 7pm: The Mushroom Hunters by Langdon Cook. Just in time for morel season! We will be reading THE MUSHROOM HUNTERS by Langdon Cook for our May book club. And! Special bonus! Langdon Cook has graciously agreed to come join our chat (scheduling permitting). A great chance for us to support a local author and read a book that's been getting critical raves since it came out. Join us! Location TBD. RSVP here.
Thu, July 10, 7pm: Growing a Feast by Kurt Timmermeister. We are planning a Slow Food Seattle member visit to Kurtwood Farms this summer (more on that TBA later this year) and so this summer will be a perfect time to read his latest book! Location TBD. RSVP here.
