About this Event

ABOUT BOLD FORK BOOK CLUB

Our food writing section has it all - fiction, memoir, food studies, history, and more. Led by a member of our team, Bold Fork Book Club is a monthly in-shop event where we pick a book to read ahead and discuss together in a group — with snacks!

If you want to learn more about food and meet other members of the Bold Fork community, this is the group for you. NOTE: THE AUTHOR WILL NOT BE IN ATTENDANCE.

If you buy a ticket including a book, we will email you when your book is ready for pickup or shipping.

ABOUT THE BOOK

A collection of the year’s top food and travel writing, selected by the James Beard Award–winning chef, food justice activist, and bestselling author Bryant Terry.

The innovative and celebrated chef, food activist, and writer Bryant Terry selects the best twenty pieces published in 2024 that celebrate and explore how food and travel shape our culture.
