STARTER:    Egg Salad Sandwich with Tomato, Chives & Parsley

The egg salad sandwich likely originated in late 19th–early 20th century Europe and the U.S., when chopped boiled eggs mixed with mayonnaise became popular. It spread quickly as a cheap, protein-rich lunch, especially in American delis and lunchboxes. Your version with tomato, chives, and parsley is a fresh modern twist.

DESSERT:    Tiramisu

Tiramisu means “pick me up” in Italian, referring to its energizing combination of coffee and cocoa. It is a relatively modern classic, believed to have been created in the 1960s in Treviso. Despite its simplicity, it became one of the most famous Italian desserts worldwide thanks to its rich yet airy texture and no-bake preparation.
