Do This: French-Jewish Cuisine and Cookbook Signing at Everest

By Anthony Todd in Food on Nov 16, 2010 9:20PM

NathanBookCover.jpg Joan Nathan has authored a terrific new cookbook about French-Jewish cuisine, offering a set of recipes many food lovers have never seen. "Quiches, Kugels and Couscous: My Search for Jewish Cooking in France" takes readers through this previously under-documented food culture and includes twists on many traditional french specialties.

Nathan has teamed up with Everest and the Spertus Institute to showcase the flavors of French-Jewish cuisine. This Thursday, Everest will host a special lunch featuring dishes from the book and a talk/book signing by the author. The lunch is priced at $60, all-inclusive, and the proceeds will go to the Spertus. The book will be on sale at the lunch. If you're interested in a unique taste treat, and you haven't been to Everest in a while, reserve your tickets now by calling 312-664-8920.
