The actual connection that's forged between the person cooking and the person eating. In Zahav, the recipes don't end when the food is done cooking—there are instructions for bringing things to the table, for how to serve, for how to eat, for how to share, for how to finish...The result is cooking that feels right for both a world-class restaurant and a home kitchen, food that's both an education and a pleasure." — Eater
