The Bookery Cook
The Bookery Cook explores cooking, creativity and community through an assortment of projects. At the moment these projects include:
The Book
The Bookery Cook book is a collection of recipes by sisters Jessica, Maxine and Georgia Thompson that have been visually interpreted by 70 artists from around the world.
The Book utilises art to capture the intangibles involved in the cooking and dining experience. The recipes emphasise wholesome, colourful meals using fresh ingredients (organic and local when possible), and have been being compiled for years – from friends and family, in journals, transcribed from memory, inspired from menus and travels, scribbled on backs of receipts, and conceived on the brink of sleep. Some simple and quick, some more complex and time-consuming, these recipes have been prepared, shared and relished on many occasions.
The Book will be released in 2012 through Murdoch Books.

The Blog
The Bookery Cook Blog provides a regular dose of recipes, reviews, art, design, music, news and general banter that is in some way food related.
We love guest contributions. Check out our current guest bloggers.

The Kitchen Invasions
We love to share the love and cook outside our own kitchen. If you fancy a dinner party but don't want to cook, or you want to collaborate then we will happily come over and cook for/ with you. This is not a catering service though, we will be dining with you!

The Supper Club
The excitement of eating out = the venue, the people, the food. The underground dining experience of The Bookery Cook Supper Club plays with each of these variables - the location is unknown, the people you are eating with is unknown and the food you will eat is unknown. The BC Supper Club currently holds its clandestine dining experiences in Brisbane, Melbourne and New York.
