Darcy & I were inspired to bring back our experience of royal India and recreate some of the wonders of this country in our home for our friends after spending an amazing evening celebrating Diwali at the palace with the Maharaja of Jodhpur.

“I'm not sure when it happened, but people have become so fussy when eating that it makes planning a fabulous dinner party challenging. I say the guest has as much obligation to make their host feel comfortable by eating what is put in front of them, especially if it's amazing, as a host does to make the guest comfortable.
