Review Quotes:

"Sheela is uniquely attuned to the kinds of foods we crave. I want to drink a Honeyed Prosecco immediately, maybe with a side of Cacio e Pepi Farinata. For dinner, it'll definitely be the Braised Harissa Eggplant. Or maybe the Melted Broccoli Pasta? Whichever I don't eat tonight, I'll eat tomorrow. This is not simply food for dinner; this is food for life."

-- DAVID TAMARKIN, editor and digital director of Epicurious and author of COOK90
