Iluka 2466, day two
Day two. We opt for breakfast at the house as Iluka is one of those places that has “tastee omelet” (quoted directly from the menu) or “baked beans on toast for $6.50” type breakfast joints. I’m not saying that I’m a food snob but… I’m just not feeling the baked beans on cheap white bread…

Iluka 2466, day one
Day one. We rolled into town on a small pink unicorn named Joe. Strange name for a unicorn I know, but it was inherited from his previous owner. There was no fanfare, zero celebration and we were not even acknowledged by the town hobbit. But I couldn’t hold this against the place… could I? Immediately…

Whole salmon over smoke and coals to please Thor…
I think it is clear to anyone that knows me that I am of Viking descent.

Another story by Dr. Chris and a cracking beef roast
Some years ago when cows were cheap & horses were dear, I swapped 5 horses for 15 stud cows. The cows duly calved and one cow had a calf that was a freaking midget. A deadset dwarf! A little bull calf midget dwarf. My kids christened the calf “Little Latten”, after the guy who swapped…

Paul’s Caul… Cheesy fucking goodness. That’s right, I said fucking
Cheesy Effing Goodness There has been a renaissance of late as far as comfort food on menus, and by comfort food I mean food from your childhood that warms not only your belly but also the cockles of your heart. By no means does comfort food reflect how the food feels when worn as clothing,…

Paul’s Caul… Salt and pepper squid
Salt & pepper squid There is always a huge disparity between dishes us chefs think of being our best and the dishes that the people (you) like the most. This for years has driven me up the effing wall but as I get older I say give the people what they want, unless what they…

Food truly is the best shit ever part 2… the seafood feast
And now, the eagerly awaited (for at least two hours) gripping sequel to my last post*. The heart wrenching story of a man with a passion for food, a love for good friends and family, a hankering for a nice glass off something with an alcohol content and a strange magnetism toward midget circus…
