PHOTOS BY ADRIAN MORALES STYLING & CREATIVE DIRECTION BY COURTNEY KIVELA ROBINSON ”Spring is here…we can’t go out and properly celebrate, so why not do it at home,” Ledja Cobb exclaims, wife of Dave Cobb, grammy award-winning music producer and avid hostess extraordinaire. And that she did. With a little help collaborating with The Nashville Edit, a home celebration is exactly what you could call it. Bringing together close friends (none too fabulous), celebrity private chef Rahaf Amer of 5 Loaves Nashville with a spring-like menu that looks and tastes like spring, a sommelier with amazing wine pairings sent in by Jamie Trott of JP Bourgeois, a sustainably minded tablescape artiste Taylor Colson Horton of the creative consulting group And Delight Reigned, beautiful floral arrangements from local Rose Hill Flowers made for the enjoyable and creative evening. The takeaway gifts for the guests- signed vinyls from Jason Izbell, Lord Jones gummies, and Rose Hill arrangements, given to each guest in brown paper cones as they left for the evening. A fabulous and effortless dinner party indeed!
Having an assortment of plates or platters is always key to ensure your chef has fun and different canvases for the food!” Rahaf Amer, 5 Loaves Nashville. SALMON SECRET Celebrit y private chef Rahaf Amer (@5loavesnashville) shares her secret to cooking the perfect salmon. “Most people have difficulty cooking salmon on a skillet, but I have found that baking it at 425F for 8-9 minutes (the magic number for almost every fish), will get you crispy skin and a succulent salmon filet." 90 | NASHVILLEEDIT.COM
