Grand Dishes is a remarkable cookbook that celebrates culinary storytelling through forty unique recipes gathered from around the world. Each dish is accompanied by vibrant, full-colour images that bring these recipes to life, making it a feast for both the senses and the imagination.

Notably, the project has been recognized for its excellence, winning β€œBest Food Blog” at the 2018 Guild of Food Writers Awards. Grand Dishes is more than just a cookbook; it's a collection of stories and flavours that transcend borders.
