About #CookForSyria ... ...

• Curated by award winning Instagram star ClerkenwellBoy (Winner "Best Instagram Feed for Food Lovers") and Serena Guen (founder of Suitcase Magazine and Unicef UK s ambassador for Next Generation London) .
• The pair originally came up with the idea to curate one charity dinner, for one night with one chef in aid of Unicef UK's humanitarian work helping children and refugees affected by the crisis in Syria.
• This quickly became a large scale charity banquet with six headline chefs which sold out within in days.
• Leveraging the power of social media, top chefs, cookbook authors and families with links to Syria were encouraged to get involved by sharing their favourite recipes online with a #CookForSyria inspired twist - so that anyone could host their own charity supper club at home, bake sale or just learn about the amazing cuisine and culture of Syria.
• As Syrian and Middle Eastern inspired recipes flooded in, it made sense to share these beyond social media and in the form of a beautiful not for profit recipe book.

Quotes from the Contributors ...

I feel incredibly honoured to participate in this charity campaign. We strongly believe in the cause and it is always a challenge as a chef to pull yourself out of your comfort zone and create something new. - Nuno Mendes, executive chef of award winning restaurant Chiltern Firehouse

It's a joy to unite with my food heroes and be part of this incredible collection of recipes inspired by love for Syria and the Syrian people. - Melissa Hemsley, Hemsley+Hemsley

I have been in love with Syrian food from my early teens. I don't think I have ever (and to date) eaten better mezze. I am still trying to recreate it at home but it is never quite the same. - Olia Hercules, award winning cookbook author
