Submissions for Goldtoast Zine Issue Four

Hi there!

My name is Bree, I run Goldtoast Supper Club – which is pretty much a fun food related way to meet new people. I have created a zine (Goldtoast Zine), to go along with each themed dinner, that I give away to guests who attend the dinner and then upload the digital version of the zine to issuu.com and sell hard copies (just for the price of printing and postage) on etsy.
I am looking for submissions from all my favourites as well as new contributors so please pass this message onto anyone you think would  be interested.

Issue Four: Mexico

So it has been a while between issues but I am happy to say the Goldtoast Zine (as well as Goldtoast Supper Club dinners) will be happening monthly from here on out.
The deadline for the next issue is the 25th May, which is quite soon.
I will be starting to gather work for the June theme in the very near future.
Please email your work to goldtoast.supperclub@gmail.com

Things to remember when Submitting to Goldtoast Zine

  • The zine is printed A6, mostly in black and white with a scattering of colour pages.
  • Remember themes are always just a basic start point, the further you stretch away the better. Think of the theme as the link that brings  everyones vastly different work together.
  • There is a contributors page included so please include the name and website you would like included.
  • If your work if chosen, I will give you a copy of the zine to keep.
  • If you have any other questions send me an email!

EVENT ANNOUNCEMENT: A Mexican Dinner Party



Get yourself fiesta-ready and join us for a Mexican dinner party packed full of colour & flavour! You can bet your burrito there'll be coriander, lime, tequila everything and tacos, tacos, tacos!


Upon arrival you will be welcomed with a complimentary cocktail and spread of nibbles, including my Guacamole (that has been approved by Mexican guests at an exhibition I catered - flattered!). We will be serving up a trio of tacos for entree, a traditional slow cooked dish for main and a contemporary take on the Mexican Chocolate Flan by serving it with Tequila poached pears and a prickly pear sauce. Yeah we're eating cactus! As always, the night will end with coffee but don't fret, there is no need to rush off until you're ready! 


FOOD INTOLERENCES
Due to the awesome fact that corn is so important in Mexican cooking this meal will be gluten free. I will be making corn tortillas by hand using Masa Harina, a corn flour made from dried and ground Masa. Masa is a dough made from corn that has been "boiled and steeped in a solution of lime - calcium hydroxide, that is, not the citrus. The liming process, known as nixtamalisation, changes the nutritive qualities of the corn and alters its flavour" (Gourmet Traveller).
This meal can easily be dairy free also, so if you're that way inclined just let me know :)

We would love to have you there and we really do need your help to spread the word. x
