Glendale Public Library: Architecture of Food

One of the founders of French Grande Cuisine, Marie Antoine Carême studied as an architect before becoming an international chef. His career changing decision led the way to modern food plating, including the modern wedding cake.  We’ll explore the greatest architecture of the world and the lasting influence on every plate of food placed before you in restaurants across the world. A thoughtful, entertaining food-tainment presentation for foodies and curious thinkers alike. Travel across the globe and millennia to discover the connections between architecture and food, and learn some new tricks to make your dinner look like a work of art.

All events at the Glendale Public Library are public, and participants may be photographed by the media and/or City staff for future print and/or online publication.

This project is supported by the Arizona State Library, Archives & Public Records, a division of the Secretary of State, with federal funds from the Institute of Museum and Library Services.
