Join us for Cookbooks & Convos with Ozoz Sokoh and Angie Brown!

On Wednesday, November 5, Rex at the Royal comes alive with the vibrant tastes, scents, and stories of Nigeria!

Cookbooks & Convos, presented by Sisterly Love Collective, is a vibrant culinary experience celebrating the incredible women shaping Philadelphia’s food scene.

Culinary storyteller Ozoz Sokoh joins forces with Chef Angie Brown for an unforgettable evening in celebration of Ozoz’s new book, Chop Chop: Cooking the Food of Nigeria.

Guests will journey through four family-style courses layered with the warmth and brightness of peppers, the smoky depth of yaji (sometimes called suya spice), and the comforting richness of stews and sauces that have traveled across generations.

The evening begins at 6:00 PM with time to mingle, followed by the seated dinner and conversation. Tickets are $115 per person and include a signed copy of the book, dinner, tax, and tip.
