Table for Two: Recipes for the Ones You Love

Travel 52 weeks of the year with ideas for recipes and tablescapes to romance your lover, best friend, or family-this book will become a reference cookbook for a generation that loves to entertain at home.

Whether it's romance, bromance, or galentine's day, sweep the person you love off their feet with fail-safe recipes for show-off meals for two.

With meals to make your heart beat faster, crunchy things, food to risk looking silly eating (like spaghetti twirled right from your fork onto your white t-shirt), roast chicken for wooing, the two most romantic meals-fry-ups and Sunday roasts (they mirror the pace of love as "everything all at once" and "something that takes too long to arrive"), things that look beautiful, super-quick to whip up things, and alcohol-infused everything, these recipes feel like romance. This is food you want to cook for your loved one!

Recipes are organized by ease of assembly-from uncomplicated but outstanding in Part 1 to over-the-top but no-stress cooking in Part 2-helping you impress at breakfast, lunch, aperitivo, dinner, and dessert. Essays on topics like first-love flutters (and risking tiers on a chocolate cake) and the pleasures of delivery pizza are scattered throughout the two sections, while set menus with all-important timings for delivering cater for specific moods and moments: birthday dinner, impressing in-laws, after-work romance, and more.
