Curated Cuisine: Chef Eric Ripert on finding joy & connection through food

Curated Cuisine is a monthly series examining all things edible, from the chefs cooking the food to the writers reviewing the recipes. Meet the people shaping the food industry, both local and national and enjoy a post-show bite inspired by the conversation.

James Beard Award-winning chef and New York Times bestselling author Eric Ripert returns to CitySpace to discuss his new cookbook, “Mindful Cooking: Simple Recipes for Nurturing Body and Soul.” In this inspiring exploration of food, health and gratitude, Ripert shares how cooking can become an act of mindfulness and connection. Drawing on his travels to Buddhist monasteries across Japan and Korea, as well as his own culinary traditions, Ripert explores the power of intentional cooking through more than 75 plant-based recipes designed to nourish both body and soul.

Signed copies of the book will be available to purchase from our partner Brookline Booksmith.
