The final product: a delicious, fluffy flatbread. There's nothing better than a bite of the food you've worked hard to create.

About Behind the Scenes
When you see my kitchen crew in action, you are watching a finely tuned rhythm. It is not just about the cooking; it is about timing the resting of a sourdough or the temperature of a potato espuma perfectly so that when your plate hits the table, it is exactly as intended—temperature, texture, and taste in total harmony.
My approach to the kitchen is that of a purist. Having been classically trained in French and modern European techniques at L'Auberge du Pommier, I treat every ingredient with respect. What you see in these images is the foundation of the Oxalis concept: an obsession with preparation.
Whether we are hosting an intimate supper club at my residence or a pop-up at a partner venue like The Conservatory, the process remains the same. My team and I focus on the nuance—hand-stretching dough, balancing acidic purees, and ensuring the plating conveys the story of the dish. We avoid the chaos of a traditional commercial kitchen, favoring an environment where every movement is deliberate and every plate is a personal expression of the menu theme. This behind-the-scenes transparency is part of the invitation; I want you to know exactly how your food is being crafted, from the initial prep to the final pour.
