I got the inspiration for this recipe from Grant Achatz, who called it “truffle explosions.” The point is that the truffle flavour explodes in your mouth. And who wouldn’t like that, right? We have only one photo because we took it during our home cooking experience, but I’m sure you can forgive us.

This soup was a summer hit in Pavillon. It was on our tasting menu, and I also added a Bloody Mary sorbet as a special touch. That might be a little too much for home cooking, though, so I made it a little easier for the blog.
This season is simply great. Especially if you enjoy food. This carp was caught by Edita’s dad in a pond near their country house and the next day we had it on a plate. I bought a couple of beautiful tomatoes at a market place and also some dill just for a few crowns, during […]
This was of the first soups I managed to make on my own. The recipe contains the basics to understand, how to prepare lovely creams. In the winter you can enjoy it hot, in the summer cold. It’s really super simple to make and the ingredients are easy to find in all seasons. Potatoes are […]

This time I got the chicken from my friend Mirek Gregor, who opened a butcher shop with Hungarian specialties in […]
This recipe is a fusion of Italian and Japanese cuisine. The use of tea in gastronomy is wide and it is not just about throwing a bag into a mug, it can be used quite well. Vietnamese use green tea to prepare fish and meat. In England we smoked ducks or fish with tea, too. […]
Edita has been obsessed with mushroom picking recently. This year she began collecting spring mushrooms which she studies on the Internet in the evenings. We are still alive and more importantly we use mushrooms that we never used in our kitchen before. So why not! Indeed, such a walk through the forest is a perfect […]
Who doesn’t love strawberries with chocolate! Strawberries are everywhere now, so we prepared a fast summer treat that will impress almost everyone. The acidity of yoghurt along with the sweetness of strawberries and chocolate works great.
Bean soup has many fans and haters but we think the sausage crumbs can break even the biggest enemies of beans. Don’t worry about it! This recipe is a bit more sophisticated than the Czech classic and it’s also very simple.
