Editorial Review

Why spoil a Sunday with yet another eggs Benedict snorefest when you can shake up your brunch routine with Latino-inspired dim sum? Deconstruct last night’s drunken antics over jicama-avocado ravioli or duck confit with passion fruit oil. Get your caffeine fix with iced yerba mate tea flavored with candied papaya, lemongrass and marigold blossoms. But this little overachiever goes way beyond brunch.  Dinner takes the whole of South America and makes it sexy and palatable, e.g. octupus swimming in warm strawberries. You could call it just showing off, but we like the personalized treatment.
