Konfekt: A Guide to Generous Hosting

Konfekt’s first-ever book is an ode to good hosts and warm welcomes. From sumptuous shoots on how to set an inviting table to recipes for al-fresco lunches, festive suppers and beyond, Konfekt: A Guide to Generous Hosting is a modern manual for entertaining. There are also musings on everything from navigating contemporary etiquette to the balancing act of delegation, as well as a compelling case for bringing back the punch bowl (and the lazy Susan, while you’re at it). We drop into the kitchens of a coterie of hosts from Vienna to Paris, Zürich and New York to see how it’s done. But most of all, we get to the heart of what makes a memorable gathering – be it an impromptu dinner party, a languid lunch or a picnic: a generosity of spirit and the desire to create a moment where everyone truly belongs.
