DESCRIPTION:Join Villa Albertine and the VanTrece Hospitality Group for a dinner celebrating food\, culture\, and Vérane Frédiani’s new book on Marseille’s multicultural culinary scene. This event will include a conversation with the author and a collaborative 8-course tasting menu prepared by iconic Atlanta chef Deborah VanTrece and Congolese chef Hugues Mbenda from Marseille. \n\n\n\nTaste the World in Marseille (2024\, Abrams Books) is an illustrated cookbook by Vérane Frédiani which offers insights into the multicultural cuisine of Marseille\, France’s oldest and second-largest city. Though renowned for its Mediterranean character and vibrant diversity\, Marseille remains little understood despite being at the forefront of French cuisine. \n\n\n\nThe event will kick off at 6:30pm with a discussion with author Vérane Frédiani\, translator Alexis Steinman\, and Chef Deborah VanTrece on the role of multiculturalism in gastronomy today\, moderated by Mike Jordan\, Senior Editor at the Atlanta Journal Constitution.  \n\n\n\nThen\, at 7pm\, we will begin the 8-course tasting menu prepared by chefs Deborah VanTrece and Hugues Mbenda. Each chef will concept and execute 1 passed hors d’oeuvre and 4 dishes inspired by Vérane Frédiani’s book\, Taste the World in Marseille. This unique collaboration between Mbenda’s Franco-Congolese cuisine and VanTrece’s globally-influenced soul food will celebrate the multiculturalism of Marseille and Atlanta—and the power of food to connect us.  \n\n\n\nThe dinner will be ticketed at a cost of $175 for 8 courses paired with French wine or $135 for 8 courses paired with sparkling water or iced tea. Reserve your spot today! \n\n\n\nDuring the evening\, we will also host a book signing with the author\, Vérane Frédiani\, and the translator of the English version\, Alexis Steinman. Our partner bookstore\, A Cappella Books\, will be on-site selling copies of Taste the World in Marseille. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister
