New Orleans Roadfood Festival Kickoff - Lynne Rossetto Kasper, Jane & Michael Stern, Poppy Tooker
Join us at the Royal Sonesta Hotel kickoff of the 4th Annual New Orleans Roadfood Festival
for an unforgettable evening that includes food (of course), live music, libations, and books (naturally). Featured authors include:
- Lynne Rossetto Kasper and her producer Sally Swift signing The Splendid Table's HOW TO EAT WEEKENDS: New Recipes, Stories & Opinions from Public Radio's Award-Winning Food Show and HOW TO EAT SUPPER: Recipes, Stories, and Opinions from Public Radio's Award-Winning Food Show;
- Jane Stern and Michael Stern signing ROADFOOD: The Coast-to-Coast Guide to 800 of the Best Barbecue Joints, Lobster Shacks, Ice Cream Parlors, Highway Diners, and Much, Much More;
- Poppy Tooker signing THE CRESCENT CITY FARMERS MARKET COOKBOOK.
We will also also be featuring signed copies of the CAFE RECONCILE COOKBOOK. Octavia Books will contribute a significant portion of all New Orleans Roadfood Festival book sales for the benefit of Cafe Reconcile, the official non-profit partner of the festival.
Books will be available from Octavia Books onsite at the event.
Following the initial celebrating and booksigning, Poppy Tooker will tape an interview with Lynne Rossetto Kasper before a live audience for WWNO's Louisiana Eats!, taking us "behind the scenes of The Splendid Table."
