"After graduating from college, Katie Parla did what many of us only dream of: she moved to Rome, where she immersed herself in the food and culture of the city.  Since then she has built a career writing about the city she loves, through frequent articles in major news outlets, 2 apps about the city, and a cookbook focused exclusively on Roman food.  With her new book, Katie branches out, casting her eye and palate to the greater region with a celebration of Food of The Italian South.

We're delighted to partner with James Beard Award Winning Chef Renee Erickson and the team at Willmott's Ghost to welcome Katie to Seattle.  Renee and Chef Marie Rutherford will craft a 4 course menu with wine inspired by Food of The Italian South.  You'll enjoy dinner with wine and dessert, get to meet the marvelous Katie Parla, and of course take home a signed copy of the book, included with your reservation. Join us for an evening of fantastic dining and converstion, and start dreaming of your own trip to the Italian south." (Promo Copy)
