COOKING & ENTERTAINING WITH STYLE

This, the premiere issue of Cooking & Entertaining With Style, presents the individual expression that defies out Southern California life style, the focus of which shifts effortlessly from easy to elaborate, from cross-cultural to across the street. On our cover, it’s glitter and glitz for the holidays: tiny scoops of Corn Ice Cream, sprinkled with caramelized sugar and nestled in crispy Corn Tuiles, one of chef Joachim Splichal’s choices for ending a perfect meal. For the recipe, turn to Page 54; for the table-setting components, see Page 68.
