The wind of the Desert makes you remember something ancient. The stars are bright the night is dark and food feels special here with the contrast of the dry heat and landscape As I get ready to spend a few weeks out in Joshua tree cooking for some special events @themirrorretreatcenter with @thecarljungle and #carlosniño I wanted to share some photos from one of the last events I did out in the Desert for @secularsabbath shot by @yomiroyando This was one of my favorite events I have ever cooked for. I had such an amazing crew who worked so hard and we had so much fun. I want to give a shout out to @rhye and @gene.vi.eve for being incredible curators of experiences, music, Art and bringing people together. I met some of my dear friends here @joseph.august @justinebennett Pure magic

It was such a pleasure to cater this event for @wildtender hosted @topangatower Wildtender is an incredible non-profit based in Big Sur, CA leading mindfulness backpacking trips in the Ventana Wilderness. Founders Noel and Fletcher @gnome_life have created such a beautiful program interweaving awareness and respect for the local terrior often collaborating with @esalen And Tassajara Zen Mountain center This luncheon for 30 was a thank you to their alumni The Menu was so fun to make because our philosophies of connecting people to the earth through the senses and the local terroir are intrinsically aligned. Every dish in this meal had a foraged California native ingredient Menu : •Roasted kabocha squash w/ wild purple sage butter •Shitake mushrooms sautéd in a wild chapparel rub of artemisia + white sage , hot chili, s+ p •radicchio + chicories salad w/ avocado , watermelon radish + toasted pumpkin seeds w/ foraged rosemary and wild tyme • warm quinoa with wild coyote mint , spinach, lemon + local olive oil • persimmon ginger upside down cake . The persimmons were harvested from Noel’s tree in Big Sur and the cake was made with almond flour and wild foraged California buckwheat @_leavesandflowers served tea , so I got to spend the day with one of my loves @_annamorton @brandonscottherrell captured the vibe with the most stunning photos All around incredible event, I’m so grateful

Oyster appreciation. I love oysters ! They are one of the most unique delicious wonderful foods. I am always so grateful when I get to eat them and I feel like a mermaid too eating out of a shell. I shucked these oysters for my friends on New Year’s Eve. I don’t resonate with the new year being in the middle of Winter, I like to celebrate the new year in the Spring when all the flowers start to bloom. But I love a special occasion to have oysters and caviar Photos taken by my lovely friend Jess @sumner_shop

One of my favorite tattoos I have ever seen is a stick n poke my friend gave himself on his leg which says PASTA with a heart around it. I love pasta , who doesn’t and since the world’s largest celiac society is in Italy you can enjoy amazing pasta made in the traditional way that is with out gluten.. If you have a sensitive digestive tract you can still have delicious , nourishing foods made from scratch These photos were taken @sonrullanmallorca in Deià Mallorca at the most magical week long wedding I catered for @jonacat and @malcolmduncanyolo All photos @kellybrownphoto Menu : -seafood linguini cooked with white wine, butter, fresh parsley + chili flakes -Ceaser salad w/ edible flowers , radish and toasted pumpkin seeds w/ GF bread made from scratch and into croutons -slow roasted red peppers and blistered shishitos w/ balsamic + tyme
