Amy and Justin come to stay… part 1
I’ve been a little MIA the last few weeks. Partly due to the fact that the holiday time is a guarantee of a good ass raping every day for a month if you work in the hospitality industry, partly due to the masses of friends and family we have had stop by in between times,…

Lightening McQueen Cooks… chicken dinner
Lightening McQueen Cooks… “Another guest blogger on the program and yes, it is more family. I tell you what, it’s like a pack of fricking gypsy circus freaks around here. You let one in and next thing you know they’ve pushed down your front door, lit a camp fire in your lounge room and knocked…

Grilled chicken ‘n’ slaw and a heap of side stories…
Grilled chicken ‘n’ slaw and a heap of side stories… The first real warm weather arrived this week by courier. With the first real warm weather comes the real responsibility of having to adhere to the non-inferno house clause of the 1974 housewives treaty.

My big fat feasting long weekend part 1
Yeah I know it’s been a week since I last gave you a bang up insight into the world of my kitchen, but it was new menu time at the restaurant and, as any head chef* will tell you, new menu time does not offer us much personal space, family time or blog-land time. When…

Mussaman curry spiced lamb by Gareth the work experience kid
While I am in the mood for doing odes and paying homages, this one is for Gareth, the work experience kid we had in the kitchen last week. Gareth is also my nephew. I think he thought he may have got off quite lightly working with his ol’ Uncle Graz, but we worked that little…

My Rum Diaries, A Birthday Feast, Lemonade for Breakfast, and Other Ramblings…
This is just a little FYI, a heads up, a snippet of information about me, and my Achilles Heal of the world of alcoholic beverages. If we by some random twist of fate ever meet and say, go out for a bit of a drink and a laugh, please do not buy me rum. Rum…

Bayger Burgers, Byron Bay
Bayger burger joint, Byron Bay Yep. You see what they did there with the name? Very sneaky. Like little white trash kids sneaking into the big top circus when it rolls through town… Very sneaky indeed.
