Sara Baron Goodman (she/her) is a lesbian writer, chef, and community organizer. She graduated with a Masters in Applied Gastronomy and Culinary Arts from the University of Gastronomic Sciences where she began her research on the subject of queer food as identity practice.

While living in Rome, she founded Eat Out Supperclub as an extension and embodiment of this research, hosting intimate, maximalist dinner parties and pop-ups that bring the wlw community together around a table. Eat Out events centre queer joy, the sensuality and pleasure of food and eating, and community gathering. Sara has hosted events throughout Italy, in London, Montreal, and now, Toronto, where she currently lives and works. She’s never happier than when she’s wrist deep in dough and has sauce dripping down her chin.
