About this listen
Marina Ubaldi Ritter and Lucinda Zoe, members of the Carrot Cake Collective, join Art Throb host Kate Savage to talk about about their efforts to document the history and recipes of the beloved Alfalfa Restaurant in Lexington. The conversation explores the impact of the restaurant's closure during the pandemic, the importance of preserving its legacy, and the community that formed around it. They discuss the challenges of creating a cookbook that reflects the restaurant's unique culture, the significance of sustainability practices, and the role of art and creativity in building community.
The episode highlights the collective's mission to share personal stories and recipes while supporting local nonprofits Institute 193 and Moveable Feast through their fundraising efforts for the book.
They share their personal stories, the zeitgeist of Alfalfa, and reflect on a bygone era.
The book: EAT YOUR CARROT CAKE - LIFE, ART, COMMUNITY AND COOKERY is not yet published but expected by the end of 2025-early 2026.
