STARTER:    Meat Doughnuts

These savory meat-filled doughnuts are somewhere between fluffy doughnuts, fried buns, and traditional Eastern European belyashi. Soft yeast dough surrounds a juicy meat filling, creating a crispy golden outside and tender center. They are perfect as a snack, lunch, or party food. The filling idea is adapted from a traditional meat doughnut recipe.

Stuffed chicken drumsticks with mushrooms are inspired by the hearty home cooking of Ukraine, where stuffed dishes have long been a kitchen tradition. By filling the chicken skin with a savory mixture of meat, mushrooms, and cheese, simple ingredients turn into a juicy, flavorful dish that feels both rustic and festive.

Lavender syrup has long been made in Provence, France, where fields of fragrant lavender bloom every summer. This homemade version uses freshly harvested culinary lavender blossoms to create a delicate floral syrup that pairs beautifully with coffee, tea, lemonade, sparkling water, cocktails, and desserts. The flavor is subtle and elegant—never overpowering—when steeped for the proper amount of time.
