Soft yeast dough, gently braised cabbage, and simple ingredients come together to create a warm, nostalgic pie that feels like it’s straight from a traditional home kitchen.

SOUP:    Italian Wedding Soup

Italian Wedding Soup traces its origins to Italy, where it was called "Minestra Maritata," meaning "married soup." The name refers to the blending of ingredients like meat and leafy greens, a tradition dating back to ancient Roman times when similar soups were made with whatever was on hand.

MAIN COURSE:    Fish Burgers

The first fish burger to make it big—McDonald’s Filet-O-Fish—was created in 1962 by a Cincinnati franchise owner after noticing his sales dropped every Friday when local Catholic customers avoided meat. It became so popular that it beat out a rival idea called the “Hula Burger” (a grilled pineapple sandwich!) in a sales test—and has been on menus ever since.

A tender hot‑milk sponge, soaked with fragrant coffee and layered with airy mascarpone cream, this cake brings together the softness of a classic sponge and the cozy charm of tiramisu. Each thin layer melts into the next, creating a light, balanced dessert that feels both simple and quietly indulgent.

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.
