Guardian food columnist Felicity Cloake travels the world, looking for new and interesting things to eat: she's cycled round France in search of the perfect croissant; toured the UK exploring the Great British breakfast; and comes to Settle Victoria Hall, as her latest book, Peach Street to Lobster Lane, a culinary tour of America, comes out in paperback.

In this evening of entertaining, evocative and revealing chat, Felicity will reflect on her two-wheeled culinary (mis) adventures, in conversation with adventurer and author Emily Chappell.

Felicity has written the Guardians How to Make the Perfect column since 2009 and is author of eight acclaimed books, including The A-Z of Eating: A Flavour Map for the Adventurous Cook (2016), the Sunday Times bestselling One More Croissant for the Road (2019) and Fortnum and Mason food book of the year, Red Sauce, Brown Sauce: A British Breakfast Odyssey (2022).
