Nourishment at No.17, Volume II

Nourishment at No.17, Volume II

A New Month, A New Menu

Over the past few months, our quiet ritual of eating well has become one of the most grounding parts of life at No.17. Each meal is a moment to reset, to pause and connect — with ourselves, with the seasons, and with the ingredients that truly nourish us from the inside out.

In this second volume, we continue with our approach of simplicity and substance. Meals that are vibrant, satisfying, and thoughtfully composed, created to support you through the natural rhythms of daily life. This isn’t about trends or extremes, it’s about embracing food that makes you feel good, consistently. This month’s menu draws on a palette of nurturing wholefoods: leafy greens, omega-rich fish, colourful vegetables, slow-release grains, and restorative, grounding ingredients that gently help you thrive. Each recipe is designed to be as joyful to prepare as it is to eat, uncomplicated, abundant and always full of flavour.

Below, you’ll find our new weekly menu alongside a curated shopping list to guide your next food shop. Whether you follow it day by day or dip in as inspiration strikes, the intention is the same: to make it beautifully easy to eat well.

Here’s to slow mornings, glowing skin, sharper minds and deeper rest — to feeling well, in every sense of the word.
