The evenings are growing warmer and longer, perfect for super-casual outdoor dining shared with the best of friends. Take your time and enjoy all the fresh flavours of early summer, from classic mint and peas in our Potato Gnocchi with Ricotta, Edamame & Mint, to lemon and coconut in our No-Bake Lemon-Coconut Cheesecake with Crunchy Pecan-Coconut Crust. We’ve included two light proteins: one, our Asian-Style Poached Chicken Salad with Lettuce Cups, features the bright flavours of ginger and coriander; the other, our Roasted Honey-Chili Shrimp with Figs & Pearl Onions with balsamic fig reduction, is a sweet and savoury celebratio­n of the Mediterran­ean. Divide the menu between friends to make hosting a breeze!
