Last year Harrods, the London department store, began selling some Williams Sonoma products in its renowned food halls. Now Harrods is returning the favor, shipping some of its goods to Williams Sonoma. It’s the first time Harrods has made its products available in American. Gift hampers, priced from $195.95 to $999.95, and biscuits, teas and…
FRANKFORT, Ky. — Bourbon has been on a winning streak for years now. The quintessential American whiskey enjoys a global reputation for quality, with demand outstripping supply and prices steadily rising. But in one arena, it can’t complete with world’s other great whiskeys: age. Most celebrated bourbons made in Kentucky are between four and 12…
LOS ANGELES — In a Hollywood strip mall, with a cramped kitchen and a shoestring budget, the tiny restaurant Baroo brought a singular, experimental spirit to this city’s food scene. Shortly after Kwang Uh and Matthew Kim opened it in 2015, the restaurant critic Jonathan Gold endorsed Mr. Uh’s cooking in a review, praising his…

Hi and welcome to Five Weeknight Dishes, delicious recipes you can make on a Tuesday — but actually I also make them on Saturdays. Last weekend, a group of my closest friends came over for dinner, one of those things that miraculously comes together sort of at the last minute. I got to the store…
Green bean season is shorter than my list of ways to prepare them. Before I can cycle through the dozen or so dishes, it’s time to move on to wintry brussels sprouts and cabbage. This green bean dish, however, is good enough to squeeze into the lineup. It’s loosely inspired by Sichuan dry-fried long beans,…
I love the versatility of the unassuming cauliflower. In vegetable terms, it’s a blank canvas. That’s not to say it’s flavorless, but cauliflower’s relatively mild personality is ready to be transformed in combination with a vast number of other flavorful ingredients. Its nature is to absorb and comply. One easy and delicious way to prepare…
Good morning. The emails are starting to come in now from friends, the texts, the direct messages, the phone messages left in consideration and in haste: Just checking in about Thanksgiving. Had a couple questions. I imagine you do. We all do, even those of us who traffic in Thanksgiving for a living, who have…
