There's something wonderfully comforting about having a pot of slowly simmering bolognese sauce on the stove. It bubbles quietly. It smells delicious. It asks for nothing more than an occasional stir. This is the kind of dish that doesn't require many ingredients, just lots ... continue reading...
Berry pavlovas
As we planned the menu for our New Year's Eve dinner, my mother and aunt and I got stuck deciding on a dessert. Much as I love my mom's lemon meringue pie and my aunt's chocolate roulade, we agreed that we wanted something new. But what? I thought of pavlovas, thinking that it might be ... continue reading...
Lunch at Per Se, NYC
If there's any more luxurious way to spend an afternoon than having lunch at Per Se, I have yet to find it. Everything is smooth and serene and beautiful, from the service to the surroundings. The food, of course, is impeccably elegant. I thought I might do this a little differently, ... continue reading...
Sunshine lunch at Hibernia, Anguilla
After our wonderful rainy day lunch at Hibernia during our last trip, D and I agreed that in the event of rain, we would definitely return there. To be honest, I was kind of looking forward to a dreary wet day, just so we could drive across the island for a relaxing lunch. It never really ... continue reading...
BJ’s Big Spring restaurant, Anguilla
During our trip, D and I made a new restaurant discovery that I've been dying to share - an under-the-radar spot that's truly local, but just as gourmet as any "high end" touristy staple. BJ's Big Spring is tucked on the side of the road out on the east end of the island, near Island Harbor. ... continue reading...
Straw Hat, Anguilla
For no good reason, we never ate at Straw Hat last year. It's super close to the Viceroy, has lovely outdoor seating beneath strings of fairy lights, and serves a fantastic goat curry - so this trip, we went several times! Tables at the edge of the patio overlook the Meads Bay beach, all ... continue reading...
Ikaros, Baltimore
It's been over a decade since my last visit, but Ikaros hasn't changed. Not really, anyway. The restaurant has moved into a bigger, more conventional space down the block (I do miss the quirkier original location), and the waiters - still Greek and charming - look a little ... continue reading...

Veya, Anguilla
Unlike almost every other fine-dining restaurant on Anguilla, Veya isn't on the beach. But it's still widely regarded as one of the very best on the island - and that tells you something about the food. Perched on the road down to Sandy Ground, Veya is like a glamorous treehouse, ... continue reading...
