20th Annual The Book & The Cook
featuring our friends
James Barrett and Wendy Smith Born,
authors of “The Metropolitan Bakery Cookbook”

Tuesday, March 16, 5:30pm - 10pm

Celebrating Metropolitan’s tenth anniversary as Philadelphia’s premiere bakery, their first book is filled with the best recipes, techniques and advice on creating their award winning breads, savories and pastries in your own kitchen. James and Wendy, both alumni of White Dog Cafe, share their passion for old-world craftsmanship and stunning new delights in this beautifully written and photo-filled work.

Join Judy and Chef Kevin when they reunite on this special evening with James and Wendy for a dinner pairing White Dog’s fresh seasonal fare with Metropolitan’s world-class, made-by-hand favorites. The four course, prix fixe dinner will feature organic, humane and sustainable dishes that we know you will enjoy. James & Wendy will be on hand to talk about their work and to autograph their book, available for sale that evening.

Four course menu, $40, plus tax & gratuity.
