Mayonnaise…
Mayonnaise. Seriously lacking creativity in the title but I got nothing today… How rude am I? I harp on about how you should be making your own mayo, and I’m pretty sure I haven’t even given you a recipe. One of the most basic and glorious condiments. Versatile as fuck, and a damn good friend…

Movida Aqui Melbourne
MOVIDA AQUI, Burke St, Melbourne This place, on this day, for these people, could not be faulted. The staff was attentive and in high spirits, it looked like they were having a good time, which is always a plus in this industry. My friend Ewey is the chef so we left him in charge of…

Brasserie Bread South Melbourne
Brasserie Bread, South Melbourne. Artisan bakery, cafe and bread making school. And our choice for breakfast on this day. Firstly, Jennee is gluten intolerant, except for today it seems. She was like a kid in a candy store. She literally would not stop buying bread. The people who own this place are smart. They are…

Another Effing Soup
Been a lot sick lately blah blah blah. Made a lot of soup blah blah. Can’t have too much soup blah blah blah. Here’s another blah blah blah. This is my take on a Moroccan chickpea, lentil and tomato soup called Harira. Which sounds a little bit like hurry up. Which you cannot do when…

Pauly’s Soup Challenge
The proof is in the pudding… or soup I guess. Here is the soup challenge that Pauly (from Paul’s Caul fame) threw down last week. If he was a doubter of the integrity of the readers of this blog he shalt be a believer from this day forward. The only real problem is that the…

Hommus…and other stuff Sammy likes
Sammy likes hommus… and a heap of other things that I probably shouldn’t tell you about. I don’t know if you guys remember Sammy, but way back at the start of this piece of crap top notch blog Sammy would regularly tell me what was in her larder and I would create a recipe for…

Paul’s Caul… Salads for people who don’t like salads
Salad for people that don’t like salad I’m with you people, salad just doesn’t sound appealing its like de-caf coffee or clothes shopping with your girl, as in it just sounds shit from the get go, it may turn out to be alright but you’ll never know because you made up a lie about helping…
