If you like to read and if you like to eat — I mean, who doesn’t? — you won’t want to miss all the fun at Litquake’s “Eat, Drink, and Be Literary” event, 11 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Oct. 11 at Z Space in San Francisco’s Mission District.

Especially because yours truly along with photographer extraordinaire Craig Lee will be on hand to sign copies of our cookbook, “San Francisco Chef’s Table” (Lyons Press).

Craig and I will be doing our signing at San Francisco’s premier literary festival from 1:15 p.m. to 2 p.m. that day. For added incentive, I’m bringing cookies baked from a recipe from the book that will be doled out until they run out.

We’ll be in great company, too. Others participating in the signings and panels include:

• Chef Dominique Crenn, author of “Atelier Crenn: Metamorphosis of Taste” (Houghton Mifflin Harcourt)
• Amy Guittard, author of the “Guittard Chocolate Book” (Chronicle Books)
• Chef Cal Peternell, author of “Twelve Recipes” (William Morrow)
• Elizabeth Prueitt, author of “Tartine” (Chronicle Books)
• Kathleen Weber, author of “Della Fattoria Bread” (Artisan)
• Chris Ying, author of “Mission Chinese Food Cookbook” (Anthony Bourdain/Ecco)
• Thomas McNaughton, author of “Flour + Water: Pasta” (Ten Speed Press)

What’s more, a slew of gourmet food and beverage producers will be on hand to hand out tastes of their stellar products. They include:

• Guitttard Chocolate Company
• Jade Chocolates
• Sosu Sauces
• St. George Spirits
• S&S Brand
• Angry Orchard Cider
