The American Plate


The American Plate: A Culinary History in 100 Bites and its author Dr. Libby O’Connell are the inspiration behind a time-traveling dinner program at Plimoth Plantation on Thursday, June 4, 2015. Enjoy a four-course dinner that spans recipes from pre-Colonial period through the mid-20th century. Dinner will be enlivened by a cast of historical characters who will take you on an edible journey through four hundred years of history. 

The dinner will also celebrate the connection between Dr. O’Connell and Plimoth Plantation. A former Colonial Interpreter, Dr. O’Connell is currently Senior Vice President of Corporate Outreach and Chief Historian for the History Channel. She is the author of several books, including Save Our History, The White House- 200th Anniversary and History of Halloween.

“I remember how every visitor could relate to food,” said O’Connell. My goal in The American Plate is to tell the story of American history through food. Each food has a story of its own.” Join us on June 4th, and experience a piece of that delicious story for yourself!
