Creamy, light scrambled eggs are a welcomed addition to any breakfast table. I love to cook them with Cremini mushrooms that I’ve sauteed with white Truffle oil and shallots.

Potatoes roasted in the oven with chopped fresh herbs, peppers and an addition of Italian sausage is not a bad thing to wake up to.  You can start it the day before and pop it in the oven first thing in the morning.  Your home will smell like the holidays.

Tea and honey is the perfect union. Hot tea on a chilly day reminds me of the “Hammans” or “bath houses” in Morroco where you get this tea in the cafe as part of your day of relaxation. You also find these bath houses and cafes in Paris where you have many Parisians of Morrocan [...]

Food is the ultimate connector. Whether it’s a weekly Sunday supper or an annual Thanksgiving meal, food keeps families and friends in touch over the years. Like many New Yorkers, I work too much and don’t see friends as often as I should. The other night I had dinner with a friend of 20 years [...]

A Perfect Protein Brunch coming to the menu of La Cuvee this fall. Stay tuned.

Sometimes I avoid going to brunch. I know that I may be tempted to order a stack of French Toast dripping with syrup or eggs benedicte, oozing onto yeasty English muffins, but no one likes to start their day feeling heavy. [...]

The leaves on the North Fork don’t really change until the end of October with colors piquing in November. The farmstands along Routes 25 and 48 are packed with miles of pumpkins of all different types and sizes. I love anything made with pumpkin, especially at breakfast.
