The Next Feast...
Mandi Casey - To be rescheduled
author of "Mangia, Y'All"
"Sorry, Folks, we've run into a printing snafu, but we'll reschedule Mandi's Feast as soon as it's resolved. Following the success of her first travel-cookbook, "Low Country Bella," author Mandi Casey returns to locations and a few familiar recipes that have become her go-to favorites and the ones she's most often asked to share. While some of the "travel" destinations are repeated (like that favorite spot in Sorrento), the experiences and recipes are new, because it’s through travel that her culinary inspiration is piqued. A new element is the section dedicated to family contributions. Traditions are everything to Mandi and her family, and these recipes are the ones they look forward to year after year, gathering around the table with the people most loved. To Mandi, food has always been about more than just taste … it's about connection, memories, and the moments we share. Come share a meal, a moment, and a memory with the Lowcountry Bella."
