Christmas in our kitchen has always been about coming together to share beautiful food. We all contribute what we can, using fresh local ingredients from whatever corner of the world we find ourselves in. Food is an amazing opportunity for connection, where our family and friends come together to share an experience, and there’s no better present you can give than a nourishing meal and your presence.
