est.
My birthday dinner was at the 3 hatted est. restaurant. Amazing meals doesn’t come cheap… that is, unless you have a staff discount. Half priced fois gras tastes EVEN BETTER than its full priced plate on the table next to you.
It was a beautiful start to the evening with a bottle of 1996...
Twice cooked veal, fennel salad
Nothing better on a cold winter’s night on Sunday to be enjoying such a comforting dish such as baked veal. Fennel are in season at the moment, and the flesh is crisp, sweet and tiny hint of aniseed. Inside a warm salad with breadcrumbs. melted anchovies and Parmesan, it is the perfect complement...
Gordon Ramsey
At the good food and wine show Sydney!
I always thought I was crazy for chefs (being a bit of a chef groupie), that was, until I went to Gordon’s show. My lord are the middle aged ladies crazy for the guy! Gordon fits extremely well in a live audience setting. His crude and offending humour on...

The modern, open and well-lit space is home to many luxurious contemporary homeware stores as well as interior designers and architects. Aside from browsing...
Warm Salad
As the weather turns cooler during Autumn, I find normal salads a little too frigid (and somewhat unsatisfying) for my liking. After a long Saturday morning sleep-in, it was a late busy Friday night at the restaurant afterall, I woke up restricted to work with what I had in the fridge – the results...
