An Evening with Yotam Ottolenghi
Spend a delicious evening with Yotam Ottolenghi as he talks about his most recent book, COMFORT, as well as his past many titles, in this fun and participatory event. Live on stage, Yotam will take the audience through his recipes and their origins, (from eggs, to noodles, to roast chicken, to a wide array of cultural and culinary themes) in conversation with his local host, and will invite the audience to participate in a second half as he prepares one of his dishes.
Just as food brings people together, this event combines the culinary innovation of Ottolenghi with suggestions and questions from the audience (that’s you!) to create a one-off live experience. Yotam will undoubtedly share some childhood stories, his passion for layered dishes with bold flavors and colorful ingredients, and his influences from across the world.
Yotam Ottolenghi is a celebrated chef and bestselling cookbook author. He is the restauranteur and chef-patron of six London-based Ottolenghi delis, as well as the NOPI and ROVI restaurants. He is the author of ten bestselling and multi-award-winning cookbooks. Yotam has been a weekly columnist for the Guardian (UK) for over sixteen years and is a regular contributor to The New York Times. His commitment to the championing of vegetables, as well as ingredients once seen as ‘exotic’, has led to what some call ‘The Ottolenghi effect’. This is shorthand for the creation of a meal which is full of color, flavor, bounty, and surprise.

Yotam Ottolenghi latest cookbook is COMFORT (published by Ebury in the UK and by Ten Speed Press in the US and Canada). Ottolenghi’s COMFORT is a celebration of food and home; of the connections we make and pass on as we cook, from place to place and from generation to generation.
