"Sheela is uniquely attuned to the kinds of foods we crave. I want to drink a Honeyed Prosecco immediately, maybe with a side of Cacio e Pepi Farinata. For dinner, it'll definitely be the Braised Harissa Eggplant. Or maybe the Melted Broccoli Pasta? Whichever I don't eat tonight, I'll eat tomorrow. This is not simply food for dinner; this is food for life."

- DAVID TAMARKIN, editor and digital director of Epicurious and author of COOK90

"With dishes like Pesto Pasta with Charred Radicchio, Skillet Lemon Chicken Thighs with Blistered Olives, and London Fog Affogato, Sheela stays rooted in tradition while bringing a vibrant new take to the Mediterranean table. What a great book for new and well-seasoned cooks alike."
