U of G, Liaison College to host multi-course dinners
Tickets are now on sale for three multi-course dinners that will raise funds for the annual Canadian Culinary Book Awards, which are sponsored by U of G and Cuisine Canada. The meals will be prepared by expert chef instructors and their students and hosted by Canadian writers who use food as the basis of their writing. They will be held at Liaison College, 1780 King St. E. in Kitchener.
On March 29, the dinner will be hosted by Margaret Howard, author of Choice Menus and Eat Well, Live Well. Karen Bezeau, author of Home Cooking From Karen's Kitchen, a collection of more than 125 classic recipes tested over three generations, will share some of her home-cooked meals April 26.
On May 24, the host is Laura Elise Taylor, author of A Taste for Paprika, which chronicles her journey to finding her own recipe for life through stories told in her grandmother's kitchen.
At each event, the host will share her favourite food stories, and the dinner menu will be made up of some of her favourite recipes. Guests will have an opportunity to meet the host at 5:30 p.m., with the dinner beginning an hour later.
Tickets are $45 per person per meal. A special price of $120 for all three meals is available until March 23 and includes a 2006 education tuition expense tax receipt.
