‘A Woman’s Place’ is a short documentary film that captures the stories of three chefs, their careers, and their shared experience as women in the culinary industry facing and overcoming institutionalized sexism. As each address the bias, the harassment, the comments they’ve had to endure, we see how each chef has carved out a place for themselves in the industry – not as a female chef, but as a restaurateur, a chef de cuisine, and a butcher respectively. A Woman’s Place is a film about the power of playing by your own rules even when the game is stacked against you.
We will be serving a light curry dinner catered by Dame Meeru Dhalwala accompanied by salad donated by Dame Susan Mendelson, before we all come together for a thought-provoking screening and panel discussion moderated by Dame Raj Thandhi about the challenges and rewards of being a female chef.
Please join us for this evening filled with culinary delights, enriching conversations, and the opportunity to come together!
Thank you to Dame Linda Seiffert for hosting us once again!
We look forward to seeing you there!
