This is the story of two places beloved by chefs and foodies worldwide - Lower East Side tasting-menu restaurant Contra, and its more casual sister Wildair. The book exudes the spirit of collaboration and exploration that inspires the chefs' passionately seasonal cooking style, boundary-pushing creativity, and love of natural wine. Narratives explore how and why they developed their signature dishes - many of which are ideal for creative home cooks - and are full of their distinctive wit and personality.

Key Selling Points - Captures two rising stars at the perfect point in their ascendance - and celebrates their unique collaborative approach - Contra and Wildair have received several Best New Restaurant nods and major acclaim from the New York Times, Saveur, Bon Appetit, and Eater, among many others - A foreword by US comedian and wine lover Eric Wareheim - 70 recipes organized into chapters: Always (mainstay, non-seasonal); Sometimes (hyper- seasonal, guest chef collaborations, international travel inspiration); Never (dishes on the menu once, not existent yet, all important); and Pantry - Photos of plated food, the restaurant, its locality, and travels bring the restaurant and its dishes to life
