Hungry? Literate?
Virginia Willis, author of Bon Appétit, Y’all, has – you guessed it – an interest in both French and Southern cooking, having grown up on Southern food and been trained as a French chef.
Her new book combines both types of recipes with photos, stories and cooking tips. The recipes include Coca-Cola-glazed baby back ribs and coq au vin. Hmm…sounds like a strange, but interesting, combination.
She’ll be speaking and demonstrating recipes at 6:30 p.m. this Saturday, June 7. Central Market, 3815 Westheimer. For reservations, call 713-386-1700.
