SUMMARY:SIWA Monthly Book Club: “COMO AGUA PARA CHOCOLATE”  by Laura Esquivel.
DESCRIPTION:“A tall-tale\, fairy-tale\, soap-opera romance\, Mexican cookbook and home-remedy handbook all rolled into one\, Like Water For Chocolate is one tasty entree from first-time novelist Laura Esquivel.” —San Francisco Chronicle \n  \nComo Agua Para Chocolate whose literal translation in English is ‘Like Water for Chocolate’  is a very common Spanish phrase which means one’s emotions are on the verge of boiling over and cannot be controlled.  \nThis story is about Tita who has strong cravings for her lover Pedro\, but can never marry him because her mother forbids it and cites a family tradition where the youngest daughter has to stay single and must take care of her mother until she dies. Tita is extremely saddened to know this and is only able to express her emotions by cooking food  which is also transferred into the hearts and minds of people who eat it. \n \nHow will Tita’s life unfold? Will she  be able to break the shackles of her mothers tyrannous tradition? Will Tita and Pedro ever get together?  \n  \nJoin us this September to discuss this  book on love\, passion\, rebel\, self growth and food! \n  \nThe book is divided into 12 chapters and each comes with a Mexican recipe which correlates to a specific event in Tita’s life. \n  \nEvent date & time: 2023.09.08. 10:30 – 12:00 \n  \nEvent host: Sejung Jang\, bookclub@siwakorea.com  \n  \nVenue / meeting spot: Paris Croissant Hannam-dong \, 서울 용산구 독서당로 78 (한남동) 청화빌딩 \nNaver map: http://naver.me/xaP7LmuL  \n  \nNr of participants: no limit \n  \nTicket price: free \n  \nAdditional Information: BC events are exclusively for SIWA members.  \n  \nIf you want to plan ahead\, next month’s book is “A DISTANT AND BEAUTIFUL PLACE” by Yang Kwija

SUMMARY:SIWA Social Night - Guillaume Summer Exhibition

You only pay for what you eat and drink! Reserve your spot and meet us for this one of a kind social night at a cafe! \n  \nEvent date & time: 2023.09.27. 19:00 – 21:00  \n  \nEvent host: Sejung Jang\, vpfundraising@siwakorea.com  \n  \nVenue / meeting spot: Guillaume (88-37 Cheongdam-dong\, Gangnam-gu\, Seoul // 강남구 청담동 88-37) \nNaver map:  https://naver.me/5BvjCQvL  \n  \nNr of participants: 15 \n  \nAdditional Information:  You only pay for what you eat and drink.
