Blood, Bones, & Butter author Gabrielle Hamilton returns with a cookbook collecting many of the delicious recipes that put her restaurant, Prune, on the map. She’ll be joined by former cooks Matt Hamilton, Matt Deliso, Molly Breidenthal, Brian Leth, and Zak Kreiger for a dynamic discussion of their times spent working at Prune and what it’s been like to start their own restaurants after.
About Prune:
One woman, one East Village kitchen, one phenomenal memoir, 15 years at Prune restaurant..

Prune is an extensive collection of the recipes served at New York City’s beloved Lower East Side restaurant over the last fifteen years from one of America’s most recognized chefs and established literary talents. Gabrielle Hamilton wrote about several of these recipes in her memoir, Blood, Bones, and Butter. This is a unique opportunity to see the enticing recipes behind that dramatic story.
