H O S T E D
This isn’t a strawberry tart. This is love and childhood memories captured in edible form.
When he was a child, CURATE’s Resident Head Chef Benjamin grandmother use to bake him “omis erdbeerkuchen“ (literal translation: granny’s strawberry cake) as a treat. This dessert on his Spring/Summer menu is his tribute to her and the boundless love she has for him.
You would never mistake it as a fancy-schmancy thing. And that simplicity only seems to highlight his need to capture the purity of those elusive memories.
With just in-season wild strawberries, custard and pastry crust at play, there is a sense of comfort in every delicious bite. Because earnestly taking the juicy burst of sweet fruit, voluptuous creaminess of custard and crisp buttery crust to a higher plane is the one ingredient you can’t buy: this chef’s deepest emotions.
