🗽 This one is for all our friends in the USA, especially those who can be in New York on Tuesday 28 April.

You are invited to our 2026 Americana Lecture:
🧀 The Epic History of Macaroni and Cheese 🍝

With Professor, Author and Culinary Historian, Karima Moyer-Nocchi, who will bring culinary history to life through the eighteenth century, showing how an ordinary dish can reveal an extraordinary historical world.

Drawing on research from her recent book, 'The Epic History of Macaroni and Cheese: From Ancient Rome to Modern America', Karima questions how do taste and mobility shape the larger movements of history?

The lecture will explore how this humble symbol of comfort food is connected to the wider international systems that carried fashions, ingredients, and ideas across borders in the years leading up to the American Revolution. Discover the connections between food, history, and the American Museum & Gardens, including links to the Claverton Estate and the Museum’s collections.
