THE PANTRY GIRLS SUPPER CLUB

Karen & Carla are a free-styling creative duo and familiar faces in the Reading Room pantry. With food woven through their working lives, they bring an intuitive, improvisational approach to cooking, rooted in creativity, generosity and a strong no-waste ethos.

Carla’s background is rich in Italian culture, where food, family and sharing the table have always been central to everyday life. Karen brings years of experience cooking within her community, using food as a way to connect, nourish and support others. Together, they find real joy in transforming whatever ingredients are available into thoughtful, high-end dishes.

Their cooking is playful, soulful and unpretentious, expect Neapolitan classics known only to the nonnas alongside comforting favourites, always with a twist. When Karen and Carla cook together, it’s about curiosity, collaboration and having a bit of fun and they can’t wait to share that experience with you.
