Calgary Eats – Cookbook Giveaway

Enter our giveaway below to win a copy of Calgary Eats: Signature Recipes from the City’s Best Restaurants and Bars by Gail Norton and Karen Ralph.

This title, like all such titles in the Cooks and Eats series from Figure 1 (pictured above), captures the culinary scene of a particular locale. Each book in this series profiles the city’s chefs and offers one or two of their signature recipes. What I love most about these titles is that we are allowed to experience the various cuisines of a city in one beautifully photographed book.

Ricotta-stuffed pasta with a preserved lemon-thyme butter sauce from The Cookbook Co. Cooks (author Gail Norton is a co-owner), Oxbow apple cinnamon buns from Oxbow, and Pork belly bao from The Wednesday Room are just a few examples I have bookmarked to make and our preview below provides three dishes for our members to try now.

Our takes you inside this title and shares the following :

The Cookbook Co. Cooks turns 35 next month and there is a birthday party on November 14th to celebrate. Our calendar highlights this event and more. Be sure to check out this shop if you are in the area.
