New Book


The Date: Thursday, August 4
The Delivery: Lunch Wars by Amy Kalafa
Staff Pick: Lunch Wars

The DL: With the first day of school looming (where did July go?), it's once again time for school lunches to take center stage. Unfortunately for kids all over the country, most cafeteria trays contain less than stellar sustenance. Enter Lunch Wars, a book that tells readers how to bring the good food fight to our schools and transform school lunches. If you're more of a lover than a fighter, head on over to our Facebook page and check out VN Associate Editor Jennifer Chen's weekend of shopping, cooking, and eating at San Francisco's Millennium restaurant. You'll love seeing what she whipped up (hello, zucchini cake)!
