République Welcomes Apollonia Poilâne | Cookbook Dinner | Tuesday, November 5
We hosted collaborative dinner celebrating the art of bread on November 5, 2019 with Apollonia Poilâne and Chef Walter Manzke, featuring the Poilâne Cookbook.
Apollonia Poilâne, of the renowned Poilâne Bakery in Paris, visited République for a 5-course dinner alongside Chef Walter Manzke. The special evening incorporated Poilâne’s famous bread and drew inspiration from the new cookbook. The collaborative dinner featured both family-style and individually plated courses to make for a communal and lively evening.
