Supper club to celebrate the launch of Marie Mitchell's cookbook Kin

Marie Mitchell is a writer, chef, and mental health advocate. Having co-founded Island Social Club, the popular pop up, she will soon be launching her newsletter – Like Cooked Food, a project centred around community and kinship. Marie makes a considered effort to create space in which she can explore Caribbean culture and food with her own version of authenticity and without limits.

As the daughter of Jamaican immigrants, Marie Mitchell's cooking is motivated by a powerful desire to understand and celebrate those recipes that have been passed down from generation to generation. InKin, her hotly anticipated debut cookbook, she shares dishes from the Caribbean and its diaspora, exploring the connection food can foster between different times and different places, and between friends, families and strangers.

Crackling with energy and heart,Kin is a love letter to Marie's Caribbean identity, a journey through the region's myriad food cultures and a tribute to this most resourceful, resilient and joyous of cuisines. Here, Caribbean food emerges as one of the first truly global cuisines, borne out of the violent convergence of African, American, European and South Asian cultures in the long, troubling history of empire and emancipation, its legacy preserved - and, ultimately, transformed - by the kinship of those who share food.
