Carla Hall Book-Signing at Room & Board
Last night we joined dozens of food enthusiasts for a book-signing with celebrity chef Carla Hall at 14th Street's Room&Board.
We snapped the The Chew co-host and Top Chef finalist with CLT3 Consulting's Cheryl Tyler and Shelly Wright. Carla is one of the many chefs participating in Sips & Suppers this weekend.
The cookbook author described her latest book, Carla's Comfort Foods: Favorite Dishes from Around the World, as a journey to learn how a few staple dishes could be tailored to different tastes and cultures. Here, Room&Board design associates Mark Riddle, Martina Dodd, Judi Simon and Edward Heid.
Guests enjoyed complimentary hors d'oeuvres, desserts and apple cider margaritas; no red wine or marinara sauce at this furniture store! Here, Tony Marchetti, Tom Hay, Frank Bodsford and Peter Lanzaro.
Carla spent the evening meeting each guest. She told us her next "baby" (i.e., cookbook) will most likely be dessert focused. Here, Andrea Smoak, American Plant's Beth Lyle-Durham and Ray Norris Design's Rae Revelle.
