It’s been said that the shortest way to someone’s heart is through their stomach, so it might come as no surprise when two chefs fall in love. Chef Andrew Hajjar and Pastry Chef Clare White have found a rare connection through their shared love of food, and have prepared a classic seasonal meal with quality, locally-sourced ingredients to celebrate and share it with you.
