Sunday Supper #6
The highlight of these past few days was my sold-out in record time, five-course, raw gourmet Sunday Supper event held at 105degrees. The theme was East-Indian cuisine, and with recorded tabla and sitar music playing softly in the background and my hand-crafted vetiver-scented menu presented to establish the mood, the guest diners (which included well-wishers plus Wayne Coyne of The Flaming Lips with his entourage) were led across a trans-Atlantic journey. Recommended listening: "Bridges: The Best of Ravi Shankar
