A four-course set menu at Chartier centred around a book from its friends and neighbours at Daisy Chain Book Co.

Join us on September 9th and 10th for yet another Read | Eat | Drink book pairing dinner, where we create a four course set menu centred around a book from our friends and neighbours at Daisy Chain Book Co.

This time, our culinary inspiration is from the beautiful mind of Joanne Harris, and her book "Chocolat"

Harris's novel Chocolat follows Vianne Rocher, a single mother, and her six year old daughter Anouk, who arrive in the conservative French village of Lansquenet-sous-Tannes during Lent. After opening a chocolate shop across from the church, Vianne's chocolate creations and open spirit awaken the villagers' senses and passions, leading to a community divided between tradition and pleasure.

The menu will have many culinary references sprinkled throughout the book, and chocolate! … Obviously. The evening includes a private shopping party at Daisy Chain, a four course dinner, reception cocktail, and a reading of favourite snippets from the book.

We can't wait to see you there!
