'A stunningly illustrated recipe book for kids (or anyone, really). It tells the story of different residents of a house cooking foods from around the world. Simply sweet.' - Yotam Ottolenghi

In each apartment, someone is preparing a special dish to share with their neighbours. Mr Singh is making coconut dahl with his daughter while Maria mashes some avocados for her guacamole. Will everything be ready on time?

Written and magnificently illustrated by Felicita Sala, this glorious celebration of community is filled with recipes from all over the world and simple instructions perfect for young chefs. Lunch at 10 Pomegranate Street is a visual feast to share and delight in.

Features:

  • Hardback
  • 40 pages

Praise for the Book

"Beautifully depicting an apartment building with people cooking food from all over the world ... Really uplifting and charming" - Nigella Lawson.

"Part biography of an apartment block's inhabitants, part children's recipe book, each highly evocative illustration depicts a different resident or family in their kitchen preparing a dish ... the book is a wonderful celebration of multiculturalism and food bringing people together. It's also a unique way to encourage independent readers who are would-be cooks" - Imogen Carter (The Guardian).
