Le Cordon Bleu chef Eric Bédiat leads a free culinary demo with sampling at Omnivore Books on Food, and attendees are entered in a raffle to win a $500 Le Cordon Bleu Collection Vol. 1-7 set.
The Bay Area's only bookstore devoted entirely to food, with new releases sharing shelf space alongside vintage cookbooks dating back to the 1950s. The author events are frequent, and the backlist is deep enough to lose an afternoon in.
