Join the Center for Contemporary Arab Studies at Georgetown University for a book talk with author Reem Kassis about her new book The Arabesque Table!

Kassis' first book, The Palestinian Table, was a personal narrative through which we got a glimpse of Palestinian cuisine and culinary history.

In her newest book, The Arabesque Table, Kassis takes a step back to understand the rich past of the Arab world and how it has shaped its own cuisine and much of the whole world's cuisine today.
