Culinary Historians of Northern Illinois will share highlights from its recently donated collection, followed by a panel that includes Chicago food experts Carol Mighton Haddix and Tim Graham. Carol is the former food editor of the Chicago Tribune and Tim is an accomplished restaurant chef, restaurateur, and community cookbook enthusiast. After the program, enjoy a light refreshment while browsing a selection of gently used cookbooks available for purchase from the collections of CHNI board members. The Culinary Historians of Northern Illinois seek to understand social and cultural history through the study and celebration of food and drink. Using the mission as the guiding focus, the Culinary Historians of Northern Illinois host events, workshops, and educational seminars during each year. A founding goal is the Cookery Manuscript Project whose intent is to capture, record, maintain and study the culinary history of the region through historical family recipes and culinary manuscripts. Our aim is to partner with local community groups and organizations throughout Northern Illinois. We invite food enthusiasts, academics, historians, culinary professionals and all interested to join and participate in our activities. [email protected], www.culinaryhistoriansofnorthernillinois.com
