Excited to share a deeper look into our dinner menu with you—one we’re particularly proud of. And who better to introduce it than Alessandra herself: “When Jess and Renato invited me to be Mond’s resident chef for the season, I was thrilled—not only for the chance to escape winter but for the opportunity to immerse myself in the rich, diverse tropical produce of Southeast Asia. This menu is a celebration of the bold, vibrant flavours of southern Sri Lanka, inspired by the incredible local ingredients I encountered there. Each dish took shape through Saturday morning visits to the Dickwella food market and shared meals at the neighbourhood rice and curry ‘hotels.’ The local produce brought back memories of my childhood in Kenya, sparking a deep excitement to work with ingredients like coconut and sailfish. One dish I’m especially proud of is the “Moju Dosa”—a combination of aubergine moju and coconut mallum, served with a light, fluffy urad dal dosa. This dish was a true collaboration with the Mond kitchen team, drawing on their family recipes. It’s a tribute to Sri Lanka’s diverse culinary traditions, from Tamil to Sinhalese. Perhaps the most unexpected dish on the menu is the “Malu Mala”—a sailfish steak marinated in red curry, kaffir lime, and coconut, then char-grilled in a banana leaf. This dish is named after our incredible evening head chef, Malshan (Mala), who grew up in the fishing village of Kudawella. As the son of a fisherman, he shared his deep knowledge of local seafood with me. In Sinhala, ‘Malu’ means fish, making this dish a true reflection of his expertise.” Images by our dear friend @ryanwijayaratne #mondhiriketiya #hiriketiya #sharingplates #holisticdining

Meet the guides behind the Gut Health Reset 🤍 This programme is held by practitioners who deeply understand that gut health is never just about food. It’s about the nervous system. It’s about safety. It’s about rhythms, habits, and feeling supported — not fixed. Each guide brings their own lens, expertise, and lived experience, and together they create a container that feels informed, human, and genuinely nourishing. @theseed_coaching brings a calm, steady presence to the reset, supporting the body through structure, rhythm, and nervous-system awareness. Her work gently bridges physiology and lived experience, helping change feel both safe and sustainable. @elinapavlidis brings the wisdom of Tibetan medicine into the reset, offering a holistic view of digestion that considers energy, constitution, and balance. Her guidance invites a slower, more attuned relationship with the body — where symptoms are listened to, not rushed. @aleholisticdining brings food back to its rightful place: nourishing, practical, and joyful. Her approach is rooted in functional nutrition while remaining deeply intuitive, making everyday choices feel accessible rather than overwhelming. @flaviadeuchler weaves the reset together through a holistic lens that honours body, mind, and context. With a background in functional medicine and transformational coaching, she holds the container, keeping the work grounded, integrative, and human. If you’re curious about who will be walking alongside you in this reset, this is your invitation to meet them. 🔗 Link in bio to learn more. #oracollective #guthealthreset #holisticguthealth #integrativehealth #nervoussystemsupport

A weekend in Piemonte cooking for the gorgeous Aragno family matriarch’s 70th birthday surprise - this time reunited with @theremedychef 💓 We were spoiled rotten by the mind boggling autumnal bounty that northern Italy has to offer this time of year - chestnuts, winter greens and baked goods sent directly from the heavens! We cooked incessantly in fever dream straight out of Doctor Doolittle with talking animals, dromedaries and giant pumpkins pulled straight from the soil rolled whole into the wood-fired furnace on the Aragno family animal-sanctuary estate. What fun we had! Thank you dear @francesca_aragno for having us along 🙏🏻❤️

Your gut does far more than digest food. From a functional medicine perspective, the gut is home to the majority of your immune system, plays a central role in hormone balance, blood sugar regulation, inflammation, and even how well you absorb nutrients. When gut integrity is compromised, we often see ripple effects: fatigue, brain fog, skin issues, low resilience to stress. But gut health is not only biochemical. The gut and the nervous system are in constant conversation via the gut–brain axis. Chronic stress, overwhelm, and emotional strain can alter digestion, motility, and microbiome balance and in turn, gut symptoms can heighten anxiety, low mood, and reactivity. It’s a two-way relationship, not a flaw to fix. That’s why real gut healing needs to be both science-informed and emotionally intelligent. Less forcing. More listening. More regulation. More integration. If you’re ready for a reset that supports digestion, energy, and resilience — without extremes — our Gut Health Reset begins January 19th. Join us for 5 weeks of structured guidance, expert support, and sustainable change. 🔗Link in bio to learn more and join.

Maledetta primavera…🌸

Marseille tu es dingué-liscious! The most extraordinary dinner with the Brujis @francoischampsaur & @catherinebaudet at @poissonneriekennedymarseille It’s been a while since anything excited me as much as this menu - I mean, we literally ordered every dish on it! Each mouthful came with such deep yet intensely delicate flavours, each element prepared with so much love that I almost cried. Merci!
