I also love the warm conviviality of the dish. It is impossible not to laugh and make mmmmm sounds as…

Roasted Plum, Goat Cheese & Lemon Thyme Salad Recipe

July 23, 2020

Long, languorous lunches outdoors is what the best summer memories are made of, in my opinion. A chilled bottle of Rosé, a crusty baguette and a dish made with care that is as lush as it is light. This is how I loved to spend my summer afternoons with Le Chef when living in the…
