I always believe that life’s most important moments and memories, from everyday achievements to grand milestones, are all equally deserving of celebration, especially at a time when there is a general sense of nostalgia for the way things were (and I am really missing the ability to travel especially).
We created some unforgettable moments at home recently thanks to Moët & Chandon & The Mussel Monger.
Check out these fantastic dishes specially created by Neill Anthony which you can make at home too.
