Upon entering Doug's kitchen, I immediately thought of Studio 54 and the Palladium: shiny, with the promise and allure of excitement. And yet, it's not an 80's nightclub. It's a place to prepare meals and spend time with family!

Jeanine and Jack of the food blog Love & Lemons, fell in love and then developed together a love affair with food — savoring not only its many tastes and flavors, but also its colors, shapes, and textures. Eating is a celebration. Experiences with food culture — from Spain and Italy to the neighborhood food trucks and culinary spots in their hometown of Austin, Texas — have taught them how keeping things simple and fresh can help create a transcendent meal. Jeanine and Jack decided to share their passion and recipes online through their blog.

Today we go behind the scenes and take a tour of their pristine cottage-modern kitchen where all their lovely food and photography are produced.

Ludo LeFebvre is the French-born chef and creator of the pop-up restaurant LudoBites, the hottest spot in Los Angeles. (The rush to grab a spot has been to know to crash OpenTable's website!). His food dazzles the tongue, yes, but also the eye and the nose. Now you can recreate it at home with his forthcoming cookbook, LudoBites: Recipes and Stories From The Pop-Up Restaurants of Ludo Lefebvre. In anticipation of the new book, we got a peek at his home kitchen. Take the tour with us and tell us if you notice a motif!

Haleigh's small apartment kitchen in Paris is full of personality, lightness and great space–saving ideas. And most important, it is the locale of her favorite purchase ever, the baby blue Smeg fridge in the corner! This is certainly the piece de resistance, although I adore every little detail in this creative place to cook.
