Gather

Food has always been one of the ways we love people in our family, and I come from the best home cooks. But I think I really began to understand food differently while living in Istanbul, where a market full of beautiful, fresh ingredients showed me that something simple could become a hundred different things depending on who was cooking.

That curiosity has followed me ever since. Through an ever-growing cookbook collection, years spent cooking and running the kitchen at Shirt Factory when we owned it, and now, around our own table. Gather is where all of that comes together: recipes worth making again, cookbooks I love, seasonal ingredients, things I’m learning in the kitchen, and the restaurant gems we’re always hunting down for our next date night. Mostly, it’s about good food and the people we gather around it.
