In 2025 Saskia Diez had the chance to cook once a month at the wonderful Bar Davide, which had its door open until August 2026: A four-course-menu with dishes to share on a long table, for guests to mingle. The recipes of these evenings found their way into this cookbook.

Cooking to share

This book grew out of friendship, wanderlust, and countless evenings spent around the same table. Saskia Diez presents a fresh approach to vegetarian cooking for guests: uncomplicated yet memorable dishes that can be prepared in advance, leaving more time for what truly matters—being together.

The recipes draw inspiration from travels, memories, and flavors from different cultures. Organized in a flexible format, they can be mixed and matched to create menus for any occasion, season, or mood.

Alongside the recipes, the book offers thoughtful guidance on hosting—from planning and timing to table settings, music, and the small gestures that make guests feel genuinely welcome.

More than a cookbook, it is an invitation to gather, share, and celebrate—timeless, personal, and full of atmosphere.
