Menus for Friends

#QuadratPodcast

Backyard Steak Frites for 4

A just chic enough French countryside inspired menu to impress new friends that’s still simple enough to have time to get to know them.
Summer Menu with Heirloom Tomatoes

A (mostly) make-ahead menu that is easily served outdoors and adaptable for vegetarian or gluten-free guests.
