Food for Thought

Consider the plate. It holds our history, our comfort, our contradictions; the fundamental human right that has lately been repackaged as a commodity, too. 

Nika Shevela from Lagom Somm invites you to examine what we've made of food, and what food has made of us. Through the lens of leading voices like Grace Dent, Stuart Gillespie, and Michael Pollan, we'll trace the meanings we construct in our kitchens and around our tables.

Expect a cosy fireside-chat-style evening, paired with a selection of alcohol-free drinks . A gathering devoted to appetite: for food, for ideas, for the discomfort of thinking seriously about something we do three times a day without ceremony.
