Friends of Kiama Library are hosting a dinner with Stephanie Alexander at the Sebel on Sunday 14 October at 5:30 for a 6:00 pm start. The celebrated restaurateur, author and food educator will be in town to promote her new book The Cook’s Apprentice. Tickets at $50 a head provide a main course and glass of wine and are available through Trybooking (link from library.kiama.nsw.gov.au) or in person at Kiama Library.
The Cook’s Apprentice is advertised as an essential teaching cookbook for the younger cook just starting out and will be available for signature and sale on the night. A perfect Christmas gift for the younger relatives! In recent years Stephanie has been best known for her Kitchen Garden Foundation which provides a program of vegetable gardening and cooking experience for 8 to 12 year old children. The program now operates in around 300 schools Australia-wide.
The event is also a celebration of the 25th anniversary of the Friends of Kiama Library.
