who the f*ck are the henrys?
Your hosts, your cooks, and everything in between. Sprezzatura is our dinner party series. Born in Italy on our honeymoon, brought to life at home in NJ. Made for family, friends new and old, and whoever shows up. It’s a little tradition, a little chaos, a little bougie. Five courses (usually), strong drinks, loud tables. Always authentic, never too serious.
Want in? Come hang with us.

“You need love. Hopefully, it’s love for the people you’re cooking for, because the greatest and most memorable meals are as much about who you ate with as they are about what you ate. But love for what you’re doing, and for the ingredients you're doing it with, will more than suffice. I suggested once to a maniacal barbecue professional that cooking well was not a profession, it was a calling. He laughed and went further ‘It’s an illness.’ I knew just what he meant. You must like cooking for other people, even if you neither know nor like them. You must enjoy the fact that you are nourishing them, pleasing them, giving the best you got.”
