Boffins Books presents a sundowner event with Manu Feildel at The Aviary, as he talks in conversation about his new book More Please!, with Amanda Keenan, the Deputy Editor of the West Weekend magazine at West Australian Newspapers.
As the cheeky co-host of one of the country's best-loved TV programs, My Kitchen Rules, Manu Feildel gets to sample some of the finest home cooking in the nation. Though his favourite meals are most often those he enjoys at home with his family and friends.
Like many of us, Manu's family has diverse cultural roots-French, of course, but also Chinese, Malay and Sri Lankan. Manu also loves to put his own spin on favourite dishes from Spain, Italy, and the Middle East. He and his partner, Clarissa, draw on all these influences when cooking at home. The result is a collection of simply delicious recipes that tick all the boxes: quick, easy, and enticing for all the family on those busy weeknights, plus plenty of special-occasion dishes you can whip up to impress a crowd.
This is flavoursome food, infused with all the flair and flamboyance for which Manu is renowned. It’s sure to have you coming back for more.
Can't make it? We'll happily have a copy of Manu Feildel's More Please! signed for you. Simply contact us via phone, email, online or visit us in-store, and we'll take care of the rest.
