We’ve been working together as a creative team for seven years, sharing a kitchen for five, and trying to teach a dog tricks for two. Our blog is loosely based on our experiences in what we call the Saturday night test kitchen, where we try new recipes and experiment with new ingredients. Sometimes it’s a great success and sometimes it’s a dog’s breakfast, but in the end we always learn something. Our passion for authentically good food sustains our relationships to our friends and family, lends a rich vitality to the seasons, and connects us to the delicious city of Montreal.
Rob Lee
Rob likes to have fun, push boundaries, be spontaneous, do several things at once, and listen to frantic cocktail music while making dinner. He’s the visuals guy.
………………
David Rollins
David is constantly turning the music down, thinking about what to do next, and making plans and lists to maintain the illusion of order. He’s the words guy.
………………
Max
Although Max’s days at the race track are over, he’s still fast out of the gate when it comes to trying to snap up bits of what ever we are cooking in the kitchen.

This is so cool!
Miss you guys and hope to see you soon.

Marvellous site, guys. Makes me very hungry.

I’m in love with every post, great mouth-watering pictures and intensely pleasurable words to go with them.
Keep up the good work, this is a keeper for the blogroll!
And I know the two of you! This is so cool.
In an off-blog moment with David and Rob I was the ecstatic recipient of the very prettiest, mostest delicious cupcakes ever made by man or angels: Peppermint Pattycakes. Do we have a picture?? xxxxxxxxxxx
Tan-fastic! Many moments of alchemical brilliance coming out of the test kitchen. Chapeau!
David,
The food looks sinfully good, you and Rob look fabulous but let’s be honest; the real eye candy is Max. Miss you all.

West Jordan (sounds like an exotic locale if you just leave it at that, doesn’t it?)
PS tried pupusas for the first time with Stuart in D.C. Have you given some thought to the cuisine of Central America?
Belated congratulations on the launch! Now I wonder if I will get a book deal if I blog about the experience of recreating all the recipes on your blog in a year while discovering my true direction in life, love, and career…
What beautiful site! I love the layout,gorgeous photos, and delicious recipes you have here. I saw your site from the foodieblogroll and what a great find this is
Complaint:
The mouth watering descriptions of the food should be illegal.
The visual captions of the recipies should be outlawed.
The creators should be rangled up and brought in for questioning.
In order to further avoid complaint action, please add the following to your blog:
1.) The squirt option of a whif of the smell in your kitchen while you are cooking, wafting out of my computer.
2.) A lick feature in my screen that I may partake in these delights.
3.) Canada Post first class delivery service with portions of your recipies mailed to me so that I can eat while reading the recipe’s description.
This complaint will disappear upon further blog development. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
how have you both been?
january seems to have been a busy month…
hope all is well and that we can catch up soon.
So glad to have found you through F52. Your photos are just as stunning, David, thank you! Your Saturday evening experiments sound very familiar to my Saturday afternoon experiments and the necessary light. Happy blogging and cooking, guys.
We use available daylight for the photos, so in the winter time, we do tend to cook a little earlier in the day to catch the light. BTW, we love your blog to. Gorgeous photos and a great read.
Love your blog.
David,
Je viens de lire le texte de ta présentation… c’est tellement toi !
À bientôt,
Annie
Ouain, Annie, tu me connais pas mal. Je m’ennuies parfois de nos aventures. Je t’embrasses!

Bravo pour votre blog !
les photos sont superbes et les recettes ont l’air tellement délicieuses que même ce matin de bonheur j’avais “l’eau à la bouche”
Mon anglais laisse à désirer mais mon mari est gourmand, avec son aide plus le net j’arriverai bien à traduire quelques unes de vos recettes !
Bonne cuisine
Cécile
