Finally found the time to post the photos of an intimate and delicious evening cooking side-by-side with Aran Goyaoga. Growing up in a world of flour, butter and sugar, in a family of bakers from the Basque Country, she is now a freelance food writer, photographer and stylist living in Florida. Aran was extremely sweet and interesting to talk to. The evening was extremely fun in so many ways – clusters of guests at a different station to cook one aspect of the four course delights we later enjoyed, seeing the passionate Aran in action in the kitchen, wine tasting for those interested, a beautifully laid out candle-lit table, talking with the owners of SAT, meeting and chatting with the guests.
Speaking of which, enough chatting on my part – the photos will speak for themselves :) need I say the food tasted like heaven?
