About this event

ESEA people* of all ages in Bristol are invited to this community meal to meet others and contribute a home made dish to share.

  1. Choose a recipe to cook /make and bring to the potluck feast – this could be your favourite dish, one that is important to you or unique to your family.
  2. Cook the dish and record the sounds of the whole process – from preparing and cooking / making it to everything in between (including the chit chat!).
  3. Share the recipe, audio recording and a picture – more info below.
  4. Bring your home made dish and enjoy the sharing of food and drinks with good company!

Through this event, your recipes, stories and intimate sounds of cooking and making in the kitchen will be brought together to create a collective cookbook and soundscape celebrating the cultures and heritages of the ESEA community in Bristol.
