life+style.

It’s no secret that our co-founder Andrew loves to cook. The kitchen provides him a creative outlet of experimentation and expression. The fact that the final product is enjoyed by others only adds to his satisfaction. Earlier this year he shared his roast chicken recipe because of his belief in enjoying the little things, even while hunkered down at home with no place to go.

Back in the early days of our brand, our founders Matthew and Andrew were known for the dinner parties they would host in our original Chelsea shop, located just below the apartment they shared at the time. Andrew would whip up a simple, but seasonal menu for a small group of guests to enjoy alongside the excellent wine and conversation on offer.

With Valentine's Day just around the corner, it's easy to get wrapped up in the process of seeking meaningful gifts and planning special dinners . During this month of love, however, it is also important to find ways to treat yourself. One of the best ways to do so? Spend a quality evening in a hot bath with a lovely scented candle and a luxurious mask.
