  • Beef Rendang Tonkatsu Rice Bowl

    This bowl is a bold fusion of two beloved classics. Beef rendang brings deep, slow-cooked coconut and spice from Southeast Asia, while tonkatsu adds a shatteringly crisp panko crust from Japan. Together over steamed jasmine rice, the combination works better than it has any right to. The rendang sauce is rich and aromatic from lemongrass, galangal, and toasted coconut. The beef cutlets get pounded thin, breaded, and fried until deeply golden. You spoon the rendang sauce over the top, and the contrast of textures is the whole point.

  • Dalmatian Peka-Style Roasted Chicken with Potatoes

    A stunning Croatian coastal classic — tender, golden chicken thighs and crispy-edged potatoes slow-roasted under a bell (or foil dome) with fragrant herbs, white wine, and garlic. Traditionally cooked under a peka bell buried in embers, this home oven version delivers all the magic: impossibly juicy meat, herb-scented potatoes, and caramelized pan juices you'll want to drink straight from the dish. Dairy-free, soy-free, and deeply, deeply satisfying.

  • Vietnamese Pho with Pork Broth

    A soul-warming, deeply fragrant bowl of Vietnamese pho built on a rich, spiced pork broth. Star anise, cinnamon, cloves, and charred ginger bring that unmistakable pho perfume, while tender slices of pork loin and soft rice noodles make it a full, satisfying meal. Topped with fresh herbs, crunchy bean sprouts, lime, and all the classic pho fixings — minus the beef, sesame, and soy.
