Join us for a day of captivating talks from historian Dr. Annie Gray, author Rebecca Wilson and archivist Laura Orriss.  

Celebrate the remarkable women who stood out in the Regency era and the culinary delights that defined the period.    

Well behaved women seldom make history, and it is true.   

The late eighteenth century had the best food in history, eaten in a style which has never been bettered. From (good) rout cakes to (even better) riotous dinners, food historian DrAnnieGrayexplains why the era was so pivotal in the birth of an identifiably British cuisine. She'll set into context all of Austen's ball suppers and explain exactly why so many peoplehad gout. Drawing upon satire, literature and many years of wearingRegency fashion while cooking Regency food,Anniewill take us throughthe eating rituals of the bon ton, as well as considering the foods themselves.
