You may have noticed that I've been receiving some slightly unusual produce recently. It seems that many early autumn fruits are somehow often overlooked in favour of more common ones like pears and apples and it comes as a bit of a surprise that such a wide variety of items are in-season this time of year. Don't get me wrong, I do love my pears and apples, but a bit of variation is good for the soul - and the belly! Speaking of variation I recently received a box of chestnuts and the game … [Read more...]
Fluffy Blueberry & Spelt Vegan Pancakes
No matter how beautiful the view, it is always difficult living somewhere that is at least a 24hr trip away from family and friends. But it is always a bit more, obvious, when there's happy news, difficult times, special occasions and holidays which would otherwise be spent with those who are far away. Now on this weekend in many cities around the globe there are fun runs for Mother's Day. Sydney has the MDC each year and RJ and I have done it off and on over time, but growing up my family … [Read more...]
Zeta Bar Farmer’s Market & Chef’s Table breakfast at glass – Hilton Sydney
I've been a busy girl lately. Not only has the day-job been slaughtering me this past week - hence small break round these parts - but I've somehow managed to attract a number of invites all on top of each other. The first of these was last Friday evening for the launch night of Zeta Bar's newest cocktail concept - the Farmer's Market. The most recent was this morning for a Chef's Table breakfast at glass brasserie with the Hilton's new executive chef Carl Middleton. Zeta Bar Farmer's … [Read more...]
SABH May: What’s Your Cup of Tea?
Tea is a powerful thing. It is served up as the cure for all that ails you - from a broken heart to a broken finger. It's had stories written about it and ceremonies created in its name. The taxation of it incited a revolution and changed the course of a country, and the most expensive version of it costs about as much by weight as gold. After water it is the most consumed drink on the planet. Tea refers both to the plant of the Camellia Sinesis family as well as the beverage made from … [Read more...]
Eat Immediately Apple Bircher Muesli
I might be a little bit obsessed with apples. As much as I love summer fruit - peaches and mangos and plums oh my - I do mourn the brief break in the apple season. Yes, of course you can get them year round in the big chain grocery stores but when stone fruit is ripe for the picking the apple trees are just starting to bloom again... draw your own conclusions... Apple season just launched again here and this will be the first full season Australian growers are using 'Aussie Apples' … [Read more...]
Barramundi with Passionfruit, Lime and Chili
When you have a huge basket of passionfruit staring at you, thoughts of cake and smoothies and ice cream toppings swirl around effortlessly. There was obviously passionfruit cake to be had but sometimes there is more to life than dessert. Gasp. I know, controversial. I started searching the internets for inspiration expecting nothing other than sweet treats but suddenly this brilliant idea appeared. It was an aside, a quick mention in the middle of a beverage post, but it caught my eye - … [Read more...]
Bread & Circus Wholefoods Canteen – Sydney
Through an inner-city industrial area, across the road from Dan Murphy's and in the shadow of a big green street sign, at the back of a reclaimed brick warehouse, just past the Campos coffee you'll find a new(ish) face on the Sydney food scene. But don't get caught calling them a 'cafe' [gasp], Bread & Circus Wholefoods Canteen is a fresh, open space tucked away on the western edge of Alexandria, serving - in their own words - 'amazing tea, mostly organic and biodynamic food and sweet … [Read more...]
