In partnership with

This week's lineup brings serious range — a taleggio-finished hanger steak, slow-braised lamb shank, a fava bean agnolotti worth every minute, and a pork wellington that belongs on a dinner party table. Spring is here, and the cooking reflects it. Some of my faves include:

  • Vicia Faba — early spring fava agnolotti with white truffle crème and chanterelles, the kind of dish that makes you appreciate the season

  • Pork Wellington with Cherry Demi Glaze — tender, pastry-wrapped, and just impressive enough without being precious

  • Spiced Chicken — za'atar, harissa, and cinnamon doing exactly what bold spices should on a weeknight thigh

Hope you enjoy! — Rhys

The Matcha That Ruined All Other Matcha

As winter softens into spring, many of us crave energy that feels clean and steady. Not the jittery spike-and-crash kind.

That’s why I keep coming back to Sun Goddess Matcha by Pique. It’s easily the best matcha I’ve tasted.

In a market full of dull, bitter powders, this ceremonial-grade matcha stands apart for both flavor and purity. Crafted by Japanese tea masters and shaded 35% longer, it’s naturally rich in antioxidants and L-theanine to support calm focus and balanced energy.

The result is vibrant, smooth matcha that carries you through brighter mornings and fuller days. No spikes. No crashes. Just sustained energy that works with your body.

If you’re ready for a better morning ritual, try Sun Goddess Matcha here. 🌿🍵
