This week at the table, we’re leaning into the sweetness and vibrancy of early summer with a cherry-forward menu—simple, sun-warmed, and celebratory. It’s a little romantic, a little playful, and designed to unfold like a dinner party: one course at a time.
Each day I’ll be sharing a new dish that’s part of this week’s menu
