About this Club

Cook the Books Club is a monthly cookbook club. Registration is required in advance of each meeting. Every month a cookbook theme is selected. Members select one recipe from any cookbook that meets the theme, and brings the food to the Watertown Library to enjoy as a club. All members would discuss what it was like cooking the recipes, what they learned, and just bond over great food and company!

The goal is to (1) engage people in the community who love cooking, have been doing so for years and could be great resources to others (2) get people excited about cooking who may be newer to it/ want to learn more (3) act as a way for folks who are foodies to bond - because what better way to meet people than through a good meal.

Cook the Books Club meets once per month on the 4th Tuesday of the month at 6:30PM in the Watertown Free Public Library's Café and registration is required - spots are limited.
