📣 Calling all foodies and cooking lovers!
🍽 What’s a Cookbook Club?
It’s like a book club — but with a cookbook! We each pick a recipe, cook it, and bring it to share.
✨ How it works:
• RSVP 'Going' on here & Venmo $15
(If you have not done both of these steps you have not signed up)
• Sign Up for your recipe via the spreadsheet
• Recipe photos are sent out every Thursday
• Make your recipe & bring it along with a serving utensil & tupperware to take home leftovers!
• Eat & meet new people:)
💛 ALL ARE WELCOME
*Please note this is not a plus one event. Each person must rsvp on their own and sign up for their own recipe.
This Month’s Pick:
Vietnam: The Cookbook by Anais Ca Dao Van Manen
This cookbook is full of over 400 authentic Vietnamese home-cooking recipes, from familiar favorites like summer rolls to lesser-known regional dishes, with clear instructions and stunning photography. The book is organized by preparation style and includes recipes for appetizers, snacks, salads, sandwiches, stir-fries, noodles, rice dishes, desserts, and essential sauces and pickles, all based on the author's extensive research across Vietnam.
I listened to a great podcast episode where Anais was interviewed about the cookbook:
