Beverages

Classic Mojito

Cuba's most famous cocktail: fresh mint pressed just enough to release its oils, sharp lime juice, white rum and a long pour of cold soda water over ice. The key is restraint — with the muddling, with the sweetness, with everything.

Beverages

Homemade Bread Kvass

Dark rye bread toasted until almost charred, steeped in boiling water, sweetened, and left to ferment for one to two days with a small amount of yeast. Kvass is one of the oldest fermented drinks in Eastern European cuisine â mildly sour, faintly sweet, with a roasted bread depth that no other drink has. The active preparation takes thirty minutes; everything else is waiting. The result is a lightly carbonated drink with less than 1% alcohol, deeply satisfying cold on a hot day.

Cereal and Pasta Dishes

Chicken Biryani

Marinated chicken layered with par-cooked basmati rice, fried onions, saffron milk, and whole spices, then sealed and slow-cooked on low heat so the steam does the work. This is Hyderabadi-style pakki dum biryani — the chicken is cooked first, then layered with rice and finished in a sealed pot. It takes effort. Not complicated effort, but deliberate effort: the rice must be 75% done before layering, the onions must be genuinely dark gold, and the pot must stay sealed for the full 25 minutes. Each of those things matters more than the spice list.

Gỏi Cuốn (Vietnamese Fresh Spring Rolls)

🇻🇳VietnamAdvanced

Appetizers and Sandwiches

Gỏi Cuốn (Vietnamese Fresh Spring Rolls)

Translucent rice paper rolled around poached pork belly, boiled shrimp split lengthwise, rice vermicelli, soft lettuce, fresh mint and Thai basil, with garlic chives trailing from one end. The shrimp is placed at the top before rolling so it shows through the paper like a window — pink, curved, vivid. Everything inside is cooked, cooled, and assembled cold. The roll is eaten with a rich peanut-hoisin dipping sauce. Gỏi cuốn translates literally as 'salad rolls' (gỏi = salad, cuốn = to roll), not spring rolls — the name reflects the herb-forward lightness of the filling rather than the season. They are served fresh, at room temperature, within minutes of rolling; the rice paper hardens and the roll becomes difficult to eat if it sits more than 20 to 30 minutes.
