The recipes that belong on the table this week.
The differentiator
Every recipe comes with something to pour.
Food and drinks are a duet. Tequila with tacos. Riesling with curry. An Old Fashioned with slow-cooked lamb. Three featured pairing rooms to start with, more landing every week.
Pairings · Mexican
Tequila on the table
Margaritas, Palomas and mezcal next to tacos al pastor and pork carnitas. The pairing that taught us this site needed to exist.
Pairings · Indian
Riesling beats lager
Off-dry Clare Valley Riesling and a cold Kingfisher walk into a butter chicken. Only one of them comes back out a winner.
Pairings · Italian
Sangiovese, always
Tuscan reds with slow-cooked ragu, vermentino with snapper, an Aperol Spritz before dinner because we’re not animals.
Cocktails
Cocktails that earn their place at dinner.
We drink with our dinner, not around it. These are the ones that belong on the table.
