One ingredient… sweet and savoury… capers
The caper challenge. Or should I say “the caper not-challenge?” PS. This has nothing to do with what sneaky little activities you get up to on a Friday night. The caper is a good friend of mine, and could be your friend too (if you weren’t such a prick). You should always have some hiding…

Paul’s Caul. Typo’s and all… Homage to the breakfast chef… and chorizo and croissant pudding
It has to be the most under-rated job in any kitchen, not generally by people who work in kitchens but by you, the general public. It’s the meal you’ll spend the least on, expect it to be served quicker then the others and, by the most part just order what you want regardless of…

My big fat feasting long weekend part 2
Part two There was a game of foosball. Now I don’t much follow the foosball and I don’t much like girls because girls are the devil. So I decided I would watch the foosball grand final, which is actually pronounced f-o-o-t-b-a-l-l… Apparently… And is also more correctly known as rugby league Queenie has just informed…

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…

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…

One Ingredient – Sweet and Savoury… Quinoa
One ingredient, two dishes, one sweet and one savoury. My ingredient? Quinoa. Yep, quinoa. I can picture Pauly now, sitting there in his spa bath after drinking three too many ciders, a trained monkey offering him a Cuban cigar as he types this damning word on his Hunter S. Thompson-esque typewriter… Q U I N…

One Ingredient – Sweet and Savoury… Paul’s Caul
“Pretty lame, unimaginative title, I know, but we’ll come up with something better soon. I could almost guarantee it…” G One ingredient… two dishes… one sweet… one savoury… two chef’s… one gerbil… a Spanish man named Kevin… hang on I went slightly of track for a second. Someone out there and you know who you…

Dim Sum magic varified by Paul’s Caul
Asian people are magical I don’t want to alarm the general public or cause young children to run and hide when they come across Asian’s in the street… quite the opposite in fact. The magic I speak of should be marveled, embraced and placed on a small pedestal. Perhaps a pedestal crafted from gold or…

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. Bayger is another addition to the ever-growing family of new wave eateries modern society calls “the burger bar”. Local…
