Happy Friday everyone! What do you have planned for today? If you have five free minutes, could you like and share this post so your network sees it, to help us get as much match funding as we can for Soup for Good? There's still just under £20,000 of match funding available from our campaign – but only for pre-orders placed here by 5pm today: https://lnkd.in/ezfaHNC8. So it would be brilliant if you could help us with one last push. Here's the lowdown: 🥣 Soup for Good is a book of recipes and stories from the Cook for Good community. 🥣 It's packed with recipes for soups, breads and toppings that you'll come back to again and again, including donated recipes from our supporters Nigella Lawson, Ed Balls, Gordon Brown, Karan Gokani, and Wichet Khongphoon, and from our culinary partners. 🥣 It also features some of our community's much-loved characters (who have some great stories to tell). 🥣 It's beautifully designed and photographed, and would make a fantastic present for clients, employees, friends and family (it's never too early to start thinking about those festive gifts). 🥣 And all the profits from the book will be used to provide more meals for our community, places at free cooking classes or on our back-to-work training programme, and ways for isolated residents to come together, and to scale our work across London. The book will be available from October, but we'll get £50 for every £25 copy that we pre-sell before 5pm today. You can find out more and bag your copies here: https://lnkd.in/ezfaHNC8 Thanks to everyone who has supported the creation of Soup for Good, with particular thanks to our culinary partners BaxterStorey, Genuine Dining, Houston & Hawkes and Restaurant Associates UK, who have funded the publication, allowing us to invest all the profits into our community programme. And additional thanks to these partners for providing extra support for our book: Havas, Peabody, Phoenix Court Works and tp bennett. 🙏 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

🌏 Honouring Southeast Asian Heritage Month at Genuine Dining 🍜 During Southeast Asian Heritage Month, Genuine Dining celebrated the rich culinary traditions that define the region’s vibrant culture. From the aromatic spices of Thailand to the delicate balance of flavours in Vietnamese cuisine, our chefs have curated exquisite menus that bring the essence of Southeast Asia to the fine dining experience. Take a look at the beautiful selection our culinary connoisseurs have cooked-up 🔥 - starting with a mouth-watering Madras Torched Mackerel, a Pea Masala Tartlet, Paneer Tikka Masala paired with Mango Lime Pickle, and a Courgette & Chickpea Pakora served with Coriander Coconut Yogurt! 😍 Each dish is a tribute to centuries-old recipes, presented with a contemporary twist that elevates the flavours while honouring their roots.👏 #SoutheastAsianHeritageMonth #FineDining #GenuineDining #CulinaryExcellence #CulturalCelebration #BestFood

Is it Wednesday already? That means there are just THREE days left of our match funding for Soup for Good. So if you'd like to pre-order a copy of our gorgeous book of soups and stories, and bag us £50 for every £25 you order, time is running out. https://lnkd.in/ezfaHNC8 Thanks to a tidal wave of help from our supporters and their networks, we've raised £78,000 so far; we'd love to hit our target of £85,000. If you have been meaning to buy a copy or two, now would be a great time. And if you're able to share this post with your networks, and help us get over the line, that would be brilliant too. All the profits from the book will be going towards our community programme, which includes free cooking classes and courses for residents of the Priory Green Estate, as well as training and work experience programmes (such as our Community Brigade) and the running of our surplus food pantry. So every copy we sell will make a difference. You can find out more about what's inside, and pre-order your copy, here: https://lnkd.in/ezfaHNC8 Big thanks to our culinary partners, who have funded the publication of Soup for Good, allowing us to invest all the profits in this way: BaxterStorey, Genuine Dining, Houston & Hawkes and Restaurant Associates UK. And also to these partners for providing extra support for our book: Havas, Peabody, Phoenix Court Works and tp bennett.
