Café Cecilia Cookbook is warm celebration of food, family,
and seasonality. A foreword by British food writer Diana Henry revels her enduring admiration of the simplicity and honesty of Rocha’s approach to design and cuisine. Each chapter begins with a short and engaging text by Rocha, providing context, inspiration, and personal reflections. More than 100 accessible recipes for food and drinks take the reader from breakfast through dinner. Signature dishes such as Sage & Anchovy Fritti; Odette’s Cold Roast Ham; Onglet and Peppercorn Sauce;
and Deep-Fried Bread-and-Butter Pudding appear alongside seasonal specialties such as Poached greengage, granola and yogurt; Globe Artichokes with Sesame Seed Tahini; and Rocha’s mum’s favourite Raspberry and Almond Tart. Guinness Bread, a signature element of the Café Cecilia menu, receive its own chapter and appears regularly, in dishes such as Guinness Treacle Tart and Guinness Bread Ice cream.
