“I want to feed people the way I feed my family,” says Marie-Aude Rose, the executive chef at La Mercerie, the feminine, design-forward restaurant from Roman and Williams, the New York-based design studio co-founded by Robin Standefer. Marie-Aude and Robin join host Kerry Diamond to talk about La Mercerie and its sister space, The Guild, which features home goods, furniture, and more sourced from some of Roman and Williams’ favorite artisans. They discuss their partnership, Robin’s thoughts on restaurant design, Marie-Aude’s bright approach to traditional French cuisine, and La Mercerie’s Sunday supper series dedicated to the women who helped inspire some of the greatest French chefs around.
