Celebrating Notting Dale Cookbook – Our Community Supper Celebration
On 28th November, the Notting Dale Community Cookbook launched at a special community supper celebration, which used recipes from the book as inspiration for the night’s menu.
We were joined by residents, representatives from participating organisations, local Councillors and the RBKC Future Neighbourhoods Team. Each attendee was treated to a three-course meal as a thank-you for participating in the Future Neighbourhood 2030 (FN2030) programme and given a copy of the cookbook to take home.
Chef Angus introduced the menu:
“We wanted to showcase some of the incredible recipes from the book. We decided on a European cuisine theme to structure the menu and recipes which included vibrant seasonal ingredients”.
Helen, Education and Event Coordinator gave an insight into how the cookbook was produced:
“The 43 organisations which participated in the future neighbourhood project were invited to submit recipes to represent their organisation, culture and food heritage. These recipes were then tested by our brilliant volunteers at the Hub. The Notting Dale cookbook is an amazing piece of work and represents our local area and creates a legacy of collaboration”.
Ffion, Hub Manager, thanked all and acknowledged the brilliant work of residents who submitted recipes, volunteers who tested recipes, Hannah and Katie the photographer and food stylist who volunteered their time and skills, Chef Angus and Helen for leading on the project, volunteers from ITV for being the team serving the meals at the supper and not forgetting the GLA, Notting Dale Council and RBKC whom without this project wouldn’t be possible.
The event was a roaring success.
