A SCRUMPTIOUS, SOLD-OUT NIGHT...
On Friday April 1st, 2011, the 4th annual Books2Eat fundraiser took over the 1st floor of the Central Library. It was a night filled with great music, conversation - and of course – some extraordinary edible creations!
Thank you to everyone who supported the event – the sold-out crowd, MC Darrin Laidman, the volunteers, and the sponsors – and thank you to the restaurants who participated: Aroma Mediterranean Restaurant, Auberge du Petit Prince, Candies Cakery, Covent Garden Outdoor Farmers' Market, Idlewyld Inn, Kantina Restaurant, Los Comales Latin Food, Melrose Bakery, and Sticky Pudding Catering. This event wouldn’t be possible without all the time and effort of everyone involved.
Congratulations to the 2011 Award winners:
Covent Garden Outdoor Farmers Market, Melrose Bakery and Auberge du Petit Prince.

BE A PART OF LONDON'S MOST DELICIOUS EVENT OF THE YEAR |
Play with your food and eat your words at London Public Library’s 4th annual Books2Eat fundraiser!
Books2Eat is held in April of each year in celebration of International Edible Book Day. Edible art is the order of the day when book and food lovers come together to celebrate the International Edible Book Festival, annually during the first week in April in cities in Australia, Brazil, Canada, England, France, Germany, India, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Luxembourg, Mexico, Morocco, Netherlands, New Zealand, USA, Russia, and Hong Kong. The event is a reflection on the nourishment provided to us by books and the many rich cultural experiences shared through literature and food.
London Public Library’s edible book celebrations center on a fundraising event held on the 1st floor of the Central Library. The event brings together many talented London chefs in a competition to create the most spectacular and edible book creation! All proceeds from Books2Eat will be directed to literacy programs through LPL’s 2011 IMAGINE Fundraising Campaign. This includes new books, magazines, CDs and DVDs for London families and literacy programs for children and teens, adults, seniors and new Canadians.
