A gathering of friends, celebrating good food & good company. Thirty people, with unique stories, meeting for the first time,  wearing fancy hats, sharing a picnic meal, enjoying quality time sprinkled with laughter and wine. Magdalena, Yoli and Deddou invited for this inspiring event in the midst of cosy blankets, adorned with fresh lavender and thyme topped with fine herb-infused, home-cocked food and delicious drinks.

What a good idea to create a menu with the theme “Cozy Lavender Garden and Thyme” and then assign the recipes to the guests. Everyone cooks a part of the menu. The venue was decorated with lots of attention for details and the buffet was amazing. It’s so inspiring to see what you can do out of Lavender and Thyme and how different you can use  herbs. I didn’t cook this time but was happy to bring some of my Lemon-Thyme Sirup I produced some time ago. A truly nice afternoon and I’m curious what the next theme will be..
