Overview
After moving to New York City, culinary creator Ryan Nordheimer discovered that his most fun nights and best memories with his friends were the dinners he hosted. What began as intimate gatherings in his tiny East Village apartment quickly evolved into his signature hosting style that sparked his rapidly growing online community. Through his effortless, approachable style, Ryan has inspired others to rediscover the joy of cooking for the people they love. Ryan’s philosophy is simple: the food can be casual, and your vibe should be too.
Dinner at My Place will inspire cooking with confidence, without the pressure. Inside, you’ll find vibrant, shareable recipes designed to make menu planning intuitive and stress-free. Impress your friends with various chicken and fish dishes like Habanero Hot Honey Butter Chicken Wings and Salmon Puttanesca. Explore meat-heavy mains like Burgers with Chile-Candied Bacon & Kale Slaw and plant-forward entrees like Not My Mama’s Eggplant Parmesan. Carb lovers will have plenty of options like Spicy Calabrian Rigatoni with Burrata with fresh pairings like Chilled Little Gem & Avocado Rose Salad. Of course, never skip dessert. Finish the party with sweets like Double Chocolate Mousse Cake and Almond Croissant Cookies. Along the way, Ryan shares his system for building a balanced menu, pacing your prep, and pulling it all together seamlessly.
Dinner at My Place is for cooks of any level who might not know where to start. With Ryan as your guide, you’ll learn how to throw dinners like a pro any day of the week and for whomever takes a seat at your table.
