Emerging from under a rock to post about this book project that's been in the making for over two years now. It's a community cookbook from the Coromandel Coast, that tells stories of labour, ecology and most of all, food! More details at: neidhal.net/
Huge if true. Awaiting this seminal article - to find out if there's one good South Indian biryani in London.

Somewhere at the intersection of #academic & #food twitter, this CFP for @RGS_IBG AC23 from @QMULGeography @AOJDavies @Kavita_Datta17 Tim Brown & I might be of interest. Come, find out @WTFisGeography of food
Lovely series & this film immediately reminded me of the wonderful Kaaka Muttai, criticised for its somewhat stereotypical depictions, but so unique in focusing on children's food desires youtu.be/bm6RCZgptkU
The final film in our “Redefining the food film” series is up and it’s about the unruly appetites of children in films - from Matilda to Pan’s Labyrinth - and the attempts by adults to control and police them.

Just brought 2 cats home after 5 days of travel on flight, road & rail 😵💫 Not ideal at all,but been heartened by how resilient they've been. A day having fun exploring the new home & it's now like they've lived here all their life

Aaaah, @sonali_dhanpal only went and wrote about her beloved 'north'! Now we have to do that Stottie principle tour of Newcastle
Today's newsletter by @sonali_dhanpal and Gareth Fearn is about the importance of stotties in Newcastle, and how communities in the West End are creating non-stottie sandwiches (ie. samosa and pakora buns) that adhere to the stottie principles.
