Meet Jo

It started around a dinner table.

Jo loved bringing people together long before she cooked on yachts. Mediterranean summers at sea added new flavours to that love of hosting. Here she shares her own recipes, menus and table styling, ready for gatherings at home.

Good food, a thoughtfully set table and time to enjoy the people sitting around it.
