California Dreaming with Nathan Turner
05.01.18
Serena & Lily at Lido Marina Village is hosting a special book signing of I Love California with acclaimed designer Nathan Turner on Thursday, May 3 from 2 to 4 p.m. You can stop by to try recipes from his new best-seller while he shares entertaining tips for the summer season. Turner describes his book as a love letter to his home state.
“I drove up and down Highway 1, from the redwoods of northern San Francisco, to the mountains of the Sierra Nevada, to the beaches of Southern California, collecting simple recipes for California comfort food, like my family’s Cioppino, Marinated Tri-tip Steak, Mexican Chocolate Cake, and more. I have also included my tips for entertaining, featured alongside never-before-seen interiors," says Turner on nathanturner.com.
"The recipes and decor here are inspired by my home state, but really it’s a state of mind. Whether you are entertaining friends and dining with family, or just wishing to visit the sun-dappled coast, now you can create this dreamy California lifestyle anywhere."
You can RSVP at storeevents@serenaandlily.com
