COOKBOOK FROM A HOT RESTAURANT GROUP IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA: The Love Serve Remember group hosts six Café Gratitude locations in the LA area and San Diego. They’ve received great press from The New York Times, Bon Appetit, and Vanity Fair. Food & Wine listed them as one of the “Best Vegan and Vegetarian Restaurants,” while The Hollywood Reporter has called them the “#1 Celebrity Destination” in LA.
NEXT-LEVEL VEGAN COOKING FROM CANADIAN CHEF: Born and raised in Alberta, Chef Dreux Ellis has reinvented vegan cuisine in a way that keeps omnivores, vegans, and everyone in between coming back. He’s beautifully translated Café Gratitude dishes for the home cook with down-to-earth style.
ADDITION TO AN EVERGREEN CATEGORY: Penguin has dominated the plant-based cookbook category with Oh She Glows, Hot for Food, Love and Lemons, and Minimalist Baker.
STRONG PUBLISHING PARTNER: We will publish simultaneously with Avery in the US.
