The most indispensable ingredient of all good home cooking: love for those you cook for.  – Sophia Loren

She’s Italian, so she must be right. Right? Ask Sarit Packer and Itamar Srulovich and they just might agree. The London-based couple has not only produced many a meal for countless guests at their three eateries but also share the kitchen at home when time permits. It is here that the love permeates to each other and to friends in a variety of dishes that range in scope. This affection for home cooking and sharing with others is the spirit behind Honey & Co. At Home, the pair’s fourth published book. We were happy to connect with them and set up a class during their Stateside promotional tour. 

Everyone has that one treat that they could easily make a meal out of. For me, it’s Oreos. I will honestly sit with a glass of milk and eat a third of a sleeve without thinking about. My mom would be very proud of my dinner choice. While he did not serve up store-bought cookies, Robert Toland designed an entire menu around the concept of dessert for dinner when he visited last week. Having sharpened his knives in an eclectic series of restaurant kitchens, Robert has been conceptualizing pastries for a long time. Visit Terrain and you will see one such offering in the form of their chocolate terrarium dessert, where they incorporate an actual rock into the presentation. Suffice to say, these won’t be your grandma’s cupcakes.
