Hot on the heels of our pizza panel, it is with great joy that we announce the next discussion for Chat Room: Food on June 12 at Swedish American Hall. 

The Ritual of Baking

This discussion will center around daily routines, discipline, joy, and why the ritual of baking matters, especially in a post-pandemic world where comfort and connection are so important.

Moderated by Nichole Accettola, chef-owner of Scandinavian-inspired eatery Kantine and author of Scandinavian from Scratch, this will be a philosophical look at the art and craft of baking.

Joining Nichole will be Azikiwee "Z" Anderson, founder and owner of Rize Up Bakery, which is famed for its bright purple ube sourdough loaf, and Casey Wentworth, head of bread at San Francisco’s iconic Tartine Manufactory

Oh, and Z says he will be giving out bread while supplies last, so come and get your loaves!

The full program of Chat Room: Food is to be announced.
