Diana Kennedy at Oyamel

The Mexican cookbook author Diana Kennedy is in town for Oyamel's Day of the Dead Celebration. I met her last night (and she is a delight), and tonight at 6:30, she will give a free lecture on Mexican cuisine at the Mexican Cultural Institute, 2829 16th St., NW. On Wednesday, Les Dames d’Escoffier are throwing a party for Kennedy. See below for more.
