I’ve always loved the classic BLT (that’s bacon, lettuce and tomato) sandwiches, even if they can be a little boring. There’s something special about that combination of slightly fatty but so delicious bacon and the freshness of the lettuce and tomato that makes this a favourite for many people. But of course, doesn’t matter how […]…
So, which one do you think came first, the chicken or the egg? this is an age old dilemma where there’s still no answer. Whatever the answer might be, I love both equally. The runny yolk of a beautifully cooked egg and that tender juicy meat of chicken…they’re both heavenly in my opinion. In Japanese, […]…
A few years ago now Yuye, myself and two friends decided to do a recipe app for the humble iPad. Some of my older readers may remember this as I mentioned it before and also posted up a few recipes from the collection. However, it obviously didn’t go as planned. In fact, it didn’t take […]…
Even though it’s already mid Spring, sometimes it still feels like we haven’t yet left winter. The Melbourne weather is as unpredictable and unforgiving as ever and I felt the full force of it about a week ago in Tasmania where it rained like the world was about to end but we still had to […]…
One day a few weeks ago, I had unfortunately run out of eggs. It was raining outside and my car was in for service so there was no option to run out and get some. I felt very jittery and uncomfortable for the whole day, wondering whether maybe I should call my mum to drop […]…
I recently purchased 2 clay baking pots that are perfect for baking eggs. Baked eggs are addictive, especially in this chilling weather. Tasting a piping hot mouthful of oozy egg yolks mixed with soft chunks of tomatoes and baked potatoes is the perfect way to pass a lazy Sunday.…
One day maybe 2 years ago, I was in the kitchen making brunch. For those of you who know me better, breakfast or brunch usually involve some form of eggs. I usually opt for the poached or fried variety using free range or organic eggs. The yolk has to be runny as runny can be […]…
I remember when I was little, my house would always smell like garlic chives. If you haven’t smelt garlic chives before, it’s quite pungent. I know many people who can’t stand the smell let alone eat it but I frankly love it. To me, it’s not pungent, rather quite delicious. Mum would always stand there […]…
I’ve been making a lot of bagels lately. With tuna, with chicken and smoked salmon. Directly after our wonderful lunch at Las Chicas in Balaclava the other day, we headed straight for Woolworths and bought a bag of bagels. They were a good change from the usual loaf bread that we always have and they […]…
I’ve been naughty lately. To be specific, I’ve been spending a lot. On what? Food photography related items of course. Most food bloggers and photographers/stylists will understand the dilemma of budget vs want. When it comes to colourful spoons, vintage pots or an extra lens, it’s always easier to buy first and think later. Well, […]…
