What if Questlove threw a potluck dinner, and everybody came?
He picked the guests. The guests picked the recipes. The result is the
ultimate potluck cookbook

Questlove is best known for his achievements in the music world, but his
interest in food runs a close second. He has hosted a series of
renowned Food Salons and conversations with some of America´s most
prominent chefs. Now he is turning his hand to creating a cookbook. In Mixtape Potluck Cookbook ,
Questlove imagines the ultimate potluck dinner party, inviting more
than fifty chefs, entertainers, and musicians-such as Eric Ripert,
Natalie Portman, and Q-Tip-and asking them to bring along their favorite
recipes. He also pairs each cook with a song that he feels best
captures their unique creative energy. The result is not only an
accessible, entertaining cookbook, but also a collection of Questlove´s
diverting musical commentaries as well as an illustration of the
fascinating creative relationship between music and food. With
Questlove´s unique style of hosting dinner parties and his love of
music, food, and entertaining, this book will give readers unexpected
insights into the relationship between culture and food.
