Congratulations to our client Aquavit NYC on maintaining its two stars from Michelin. Chef Emma Bengtsson works harder than anyone we know and is a nurturing leader.

On Saturday, after representing Breville at the America’s Test Kitchen Boston EATS event, we headed over to Sarma -- the sibling to Ana Sortun's Oleana -- for what turned out to be a dazzling dinner. Chef Cassie Piuma has serious game, folks, so be sure to add this restaurant to your bucket list.

Last night Ben attended the Smithsonian Food History Weekend Gala, which was hosted brilliantly by Calvin Trillin and included stellar speeches by Will Guidara and honoree Danny Meyer.
