Miso Onion soup with grilled CHEESE THE QUEEN CLASSIC

This recipe comes from our most favorite person behind the camera Tanya / GUGU Works /. She takes pictures, shoots videos, tastes our dishes and she cooks ..oh, so well. We like to introduce the people who delight us with their taste for beautiful and delicious food.

This dish can make you dream of a leisurely lunch somewhere in the south of France or send you straight to Japan. It’s a matter of taste! The recipe is inspired by the two best cuisines in the world (in the opinion of Tanya) – French and Japanese.
