Hoppin' John Martin Taylor cookbook dinner at London Grill
This Monday, October 22nd London Grill (2301 Fairmount Ave.) is hosting an evening of North Carolina cookin' with Hoppin' John Martin Taylor, author of Hoppin' John's Lowcountry Cooking. This guide to the curious and comforting cuisine of North Carolina's Lowcountry is celebrating its twentieth anniversary with a re-release from UNC Press as well as a night of music and family-style dining at London. London owner Terry Berch McNally and Hoppin' John Martin Taylor go way back, she hosted a cookbook release party for him when the book was first published in 1991.
The twentieth anniversary menu kicks off with a cocktail hour featuring pimento cheese, biscuits with "trash" gravy and a chance to talk shrimp and grits with Taylor. All of the dishes served at dinner are Lowcountry classics, think shrimp and chicken pilau, cornbread, and green bean and benne (sesame) salad.
The spread is $60 a head and comes complete with a African Creole and jazz trio to set the mood for the evening. To reserve your place at the table call 215-978-4545 or visit London's site.
