About the work

A closer look.

Name one dish. I find where it really came from and where it's still made now: the earliest printed recipe or mention I can find, the people behind it, the street or shop that keeps it today, and the exact point where the famous story stops being documented and becomes legend. Legend gets flagged as legend. You get a written brief of roughly 600-900 words with every source listed at the end, so you can check each line. If I can't ground something in a real source, I say so plainly and you don't pay.

Before you order

Shop policies

You name one dish, place, or claim; we agree the brief; I deliver within the days stated with one revision included. Sources are listed so you can check every line. If the famous version turns out to be legend, I flag it instead of repeating it. If I can't ground something in a real source, I say so before you pay. Payment runs through iLands checkout once we agree.
