EVPL Central

Large Group Meeting Room

A book club, but for cookbooks! Try out a different recipe each month, and come to discuss with other passionate home cooks.

Are you a passionate home chef? Do you love to read about new recipes? Do you enjoy experimenting in the kitchen? Then this program is for you! Come join our What’s Cooking? Book Discussion. Each month, one cookbook will be selected. Throughout the month, participants will attempt a recipe from the cookbook, then come to discuss what they made at a monthly discussion! We welcome ALL modifications to recipes - if you're plant-based or have certain dietary restrictions, you can modify any recipe to fit your needs. It’s a book club, but for home cooks who want to try new recipes and dish about their love of food!
