We have been confined and eating all the meals at home, and cooking might be a source of either stress or a zen moment. We suggest you go for the second choice.

We know that there is a lot to consider when cooking, what shall we eat, will the kids like it, will my hubby or wife love it? What ingredients do I have in the fridge? And ultimately, the starting point: What will I cook today? I feel so uninspired.

Well, some days you deserve a premium service delivered home. Not just any meal delivery, but something outstanding. Something that will boost your energy, and love for food, and make you relax enjoy new flavors, and learn new techniques in the kitchen.

The suggestion is an amazing combo. What is the best way to discover a country? What is the best way to feel like you are in another place in the world? I'd say flavor and smell. It leads me to food, it leads me to wine tasting, and a lavish gastronomic exploration. 

How about having a world-renowned Chef, Michelin starred guiding you through the traditional flavors of his own country?
