The Israeli born chef co-founded Honey & Co with his wife, Sarit Packer, a cozy spot located in London's once sleepy Fitzrovia neigborhood that serves homey Middle Eastern fair directly across the street from their amazing food shop, market, and culinary boutique Honey & Spice. Following in the footsteps of their UK colleague and cookbook author Yotam Ottolenghi, of whom they both worked for prior to starting Honey & Co, Itamar and Sarit have released a handful of Honey & Co cookbooks over in the UK, and they just finished a whirwind tour of the US to promote the release of their Honey & Co at Home cookbook just last month. They visited cities and chefs all over the country to help promote the book, which presents their simple and delicious Middle Eastern dishes that are easy to make at home, and they stopped through Los Angeles to do a takeover of Sqrl, Jessica Koslow's venerable breakfast and lunch spot which kind of feels like a version of Honey & Co in California. Itamar excitedly talked to The Shift List about the role that music plays at Honey & Co last August, and we ended up recording this on two stools in a pseudo storage room in the working cellar underneath their Honey & Spice shop.

On today's episode of THE FOOD SEEN, Jessica Koslow grew up near Los Angeles, surrounded by fresh produce and perpetual summer. It wasn't until a stint cooking at Atlanta's Bacchanalia, that she realized how fleeting seasons can be. When Jessica returned to California, she started Sqirl, a jam company in it's original iteration. Using local fruits, like Gravenstein Apple, Moro Blood Oranges, Wild Boysenberries, and Blenheim Apricot, she began to grow organically as a business in East Hollywood's Silver Lake, eventually serving breakfast rice bowls with sorrel pesto and lacto-fermented hot sauce, as well as the now famed ricotta toast. From 8AM-4PM everyday, Sqirl feeds LA in a way it's never been fed before, with a creative conscience, and a taste for preserving the future … come Sqirl away with us!
