what am i eating, again?
the other week i had the privilege of attending something called “secret dining”. my friend peter found out about it, and told me that it’s a sort of pre-fixe menu, cooked by a chef in his or her home (with wine pairings, bien sûr). obviously, i was in. i wanted to do something like this when i was in berlin, but i missed my opportunities. all i have to say is that it was...

hussein chalayan: récits de mode
