Links & Friends. SOON THE DOORS WILL OPEN. There will be no workshops in July, August or September due to a seasonal restaurant we are opening next summer.

But the structure will remain the same, It’s all about preparing lunch and dinner and sharing it together. Let’s call it structured variety. For those of you who a...

Links & Friends. The one he was most excited about was the one coming up an hour later. An intimate little lunch, cooked and served in the kitchen of Château Ducru-Beaucaillou by the master of the house, Mr. Bruno Borie. He was beaming with excitement. Later when he met my husband in London he confessed that the lunch had more than lived up to its billing, the highlight of a spectacular Médoc visit. Perhaps I would never know. New Year’s eve should always be a black tie event even in November. A few cook...

Links & Friends. Mothers & Daughters. This is my husband’s annual blogpost, enjoy! My grandfather ruled the table. My mother’s quest for independence and equal rights made us take a break from it, briefly. Perhaps that was necessary. Now we are back at the table but this time there is no boss. My wife is an astonishing cook. That’s why she cooks and I clean. But that was last years topic. I love to improvise, working without a script. The food is on the table, the cast is there, unpaid and badly beha...
