Summary

For Marissa Hermer, a house just isn't a home until pots are simmering on the stove and roasts are fragrant in the oven. In fact, food has always been central to Heffner's sense of place and family-growing up in Southern California, she ate avocados picked from her grandmother's tree and freshly caught fish from Newport Beach.

An American Girl in London by Marissa Hermer

Ladies of London star Marissa Hermer grew up in southern California picking avocados from her grandmother's tree. Weekends meant trips to the Newport Beach pier for fresh fish and bowls of granola baked in the sunny family kitchen. But everything changed when Marissa moved to London to be with the love of her life, a British restaurateur who prefers meat and potatoes to guacamole. A classic Sunday roast replaced her beachside BQ, and sticky toffee pudding elbowed out the s'mores. But as she made her home in England and started a family of her own, Marissa didn't want to lose her roots. She began incorporating a bit of California into her recipes, creating homey British favorites with a brighter twist.

Drawing inspiration from both her American upbringing and British cuisine, the 120 recipes in An American Girl in London show you how to cook delicious, nourishing, family-friendly fare that earns raves on both sides of the pond. From a flavorful sourdough bread and butter pudding to a rich mushroom and tarragon pie, Marissa shows you how to amp up the flavors of home to keep you, your family, and friends feeling fit, loved, and completely nourished. While her home kitchen might not be the most traditional, it's a match made in transatlantic heaven.
Marissa Hermer owns Bumpkin restaurants in London and is the star of Bravo's Ladies of London. She lives in London with her husband and children.
