Jennee’s taking over… accidental mussels with fennel and orange
The apparition… cooks. As I said in my previous post (I am basically just gonna take this shit over!!) I spent the weekend at my sisters… yes the same sister that set the spam challenge oh so many months ago when the blog was just a fledgling learning how to fly… when no one would…

Paul’s Caul, typos and all… and more photos to boot! Holidayfoodisthebestshitever (part 2)
So three days have passed since my last post and many meals have occurred, we have left no stone unturned, we listened to our friend’s advice, local’s insider knowledge and even just took a punt. I must admit the kind of place we didn’t try was a cheap place as my bank account will attest…

china tucker… the food diary of my Italian born, Australian raised friend who sometimes lives in China…
“a Gitana (my friend’s name is Gitana) blurb on kung fu and food in china” Last year, I trained in rural China at a kung fu school for four months. Despite the wonderful training with extremely knowledgeable Shaolin Masters and the attractiveness of simple living, being cooked for is also seemingly attractive… it is not…

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…

Paul’s Caul – Fennel in all its glory… & ‘the Lido’ crew
We seem to be doing more requests of late and that means someone must actually be reading this, so kudos to us! Today’s request is from another blogger named “pantryobsession” and we like her for several reasons, her name is cool and she likes us… both brilliant reason’s. The request is in the same format…

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…
