It is more than twenty years since we left the city. This is a serious chunk of time, longer than the years we spent living there. Yet we still think of Jerusalem as our home. Not home in the sense of the place that you conduct your daily life or constantly return to. In fact, Jerusalem is our home almost against our wills. It is our home because it defines us, whether we like it or not.

Brunch, for me, is an extended breakfast that should be enjoyed whenever you have time properly to engage in cooking and eating.

The way to entice people into cooking is to cook delicious things.

The combination of olive oil, garlic and lemon juice lifts the spirits in winter.

Just-poached vegetables show off their natural attributes, and taste fresh and light in a way you never get with roasting or frying.

You can be vegetarian and eat fish. Its your choice, just say: I am what I am. There are no hardcore divisions anymore.
