The London Plane restaurant and flower shop was a special place. For ten years (2013-2022), it anchored a corner in Seattle’s historic Pioneer Square, welcoming both locals and visitors from afar. This book remembers its heart and soul, celebrating the community of cooks, bakers, florists, servers, and beloved customers.
Katherine Anderson, in collaboration with chefs and creatives who were a part of The London Plane, organizes The London Plane Flower & Cook Book around the calendar year. Each chapter contains a reflection about life at The LP during that month, an essay about the season’s flowers, and a number of recipes from our kitchen and bakery, including some of the most popular recipes such as the Buttermilk Biscuit, Michael’s Plane Bread, Chicken Pot Pie, and our Granola. Over 150 remarkable photographs and illustrations of the place, its recipes, and flowers accompany the text.
Proudly produced and designed in collaboration with Seattle-based Marquand Books. This limited edition book is perfect for anyone who loves flowers, cooking, photography, memoirs, or cherishes the beauty that was The London Plane.
Contributors include Danny Conkling, Dorothée Brand, Emily Dann, Honnah Weber, Isvald Klingels, Kyle Johnson, Mehdi Boujrada, Melissa Smithers, Michael Sanders, Sako Gordon, Sophie Handler, way thị sum, Yasuaki Saito, Zach Lucido, and Zarah Kahn.
