Anna Hedworth - Service | Wednesday 9 April, 6.30pm

We're hugely looking forward to welcoming Anna Hedworth, chef-proprietor of Newcastle's own Cook House and Long Friday, to Collected to talk about her new book - Service: One Day in a Restaurant, Over 150 Recipes to Cook at Home

---

An intimate look into the daily operations of her celebrated restaurants, Service is the latest book by acclaimed chef and restaurateur Anna Hedworth. Known for her focus on local sourcing and sustainability, in Service Anna takes readers through a typical day at her restaurant, from early morning preparations to the final moments of the night. Mirroring the flow of a restaurant day, the book features recipes that align with different times and seasonal ingredients.

Rich with Anna’s love for food, her ingredients, and the northeast of England, Service not only explores the joys and challenges of running a restaurant but also captures a significant moment in modern British cuisine. Inspired by culinary figures like Alice Waters, Fergus Henderson, and Skye Gyngell, Anna's unique approach to cooking shines throughout.

Service offers more than just recipes; it provides readers with a glimpse into the life of a restaurant and the beauty of simple, seasonal cooking. Let Anna show you what it is like to be part of the family, what actually happens in the kitchen and behind the bar. Meet the characters: chefs, waiters, bartenders, farmers, fishing folk, customers – all brought together in a celebration.

As well as talking and answering questions about her book, Anna will bring and share some tasters of some of its recipes!
