Did you know the invention of s’mores can be tied back to Buffalo? Join Read It & Eat and author Dustin Renwick to learn this incredible story.
Dustin’s article is one of many to be featured in the 2026 edition of The Best American Food and Travel Writing. In this book, you’ll find a collection of the year’s best food and travel writing, selected by renowned chef and humanitarian José Andrés.
“Good food and travel writing takes us somewhere far, far away without leaving our living rooms,” writes José Andrés. “Open a magazine or a newspaper, and boom: you are going beyond the horizon, discovering a new world.”
As Andres observes, “In these pages you have a how-to manual of opportunities to make the world a better place.”
Attendees will enjoy samples of two recipes from the cookbook during the Q&A with Dustin and our owner Kim. Books can be purchased separately or bundled with your ticket.
