Please join us to hear noted food historian and author Peter G. Rose.  Ms.  Rose will describe the ways food was brought to America by the Dutch more than three centuries ago and the way these foods were adapted to the new circumstances. Images of seventeenth-century Dutch art works   depicting various foodstuffs are part of the lecture.
