Culinary Historians of San Diego will present “Inventing the Flying Meal - The Early Days of Food in Flight,” featuring Richard Foss, at 10:30 am May 18, in the Neil Morgan Auditorium of the San Diego Central Library, 330 Park Blvd, San Diego. Aircraft present the most challenging cooking environment that has ever existed, but cooks and engineers rose to the challenge. Zeppelins, flying boats, and some airliners featured meats roasted inflight and sauces made from scratch. Some strange things were tried, including cooking with charcoal, alcohol stoves, and the heat of the engines. Refrigeration was another problem, and even trays with precooked meals present challenges in transport and storage. After this lecture, you’ll marvel that any meal can be created in flight, much less a good one. Richard Foss has been writing professionally since 1986 when he started reviewing restaurants for a Los Angeles newspaper. He has contributed to over forty different publications, including the Encyclopedia of World Food Cultures and the Oxford Companion to Sweets. Richard has taught culinary history in extension programs, done lecture tours in the US, Australia, and New Zealand, been a culinary consultant for museums, and is on the board of Culinary Historians of Southern California. His book on the history of rum was published in 2012. “Food in the Air and Space” was released in December 2014. Foss is the Executive Director of Collage: A Place for Art and Culture, a nonprofit arts center located in San Pedro, California. Stay Connected on Facebook and Instagram

Celebrating 30 Years of Artistic Excellence: Duke Windsor's Milestone Anniversary as a Fine Artist in San Diego County. In 1994, Duke Windsor opened his first art studio only two blocks away on Fourth Avenue, setting the stage for a prolific artistic career. Over the past three decades, Windsor has delved into a diverse array of subjects, with his captivating Urban capes garnering acclaim at juried exhibitions, group shows, and corporate venues throughout Southern California. The exhibition 'Reflections' is a unique exploration of the liminal space between urban landscapes and spiritual introspection. Through large-scale acrylic paintings, I invite viewers to delve into the transformative power of Art in ordinary alleys. The gold leaf skies in these paintings symbolize a deep spiritual reverence within the solitude of the depicted spaces, offering a unique perspective on the familiar. This exhibit features several contemporary cityscapes, and the work on display was created using acrylic and imitation gold leaf. Prepare to be inspired and moved by the transformative power of art. As Duke Windsor commemorates his 30th anniversary as a fine artist in San Diego, we celebrate his remarkable artistic achievements and the indelible impact he has made on the cultural landscape of Southern California and beyond.
