I first met nasturtiums (Tropaeolum majus) growing wildly in an abandoned park. They had no water and no love but their lily-pad leaves blanketed the ground and their vibrant flowers popped in reds and yellows. There is a saying that goes, “be nasty to nasturtiums.”

Lillet Blanc and Provençal Saumon en Papillote
One of our favorite aperitifs to sip is Lillet Blanc (more commonly known as Lillet Blonde) which we pour over ice and serve with a slice of orange peel. We also incorporate Lillet Blonde into a cocktail, made famous by James Bond in the movie "Casino Royale" where he ordered a version of the martini called the Vesper. That cocktail is made with three measures of Gordon's gin, one measure of vodka, and half a measure of Lillet Blonde, shaken over ice until cold then served in a deep champagne goblet with a large thin slice of lemon peel.
Closed until further notice.
