Recently I’d been around my parent’s place and my mum had told me about the night that my brother and his girlfriend had been around for dinner and they’d all worked on surf and turf together. Amy had the idea to replicate a recipe they do at her work, so they threw butter into a […]

  These  are some of my favourite burgers to do at home. Quick and easy and with the added bonus that turkey is meant to be a fairly healthy option. 500g turkey mince Zest of a lime and some lime juice Salt and pepper 2 eggs 1 onion 1 red chilli 2 cloves of garlic […]

Salt and Pepper Squid This was the first time I had cooked with squid. My dad had given me a vacuumed packed packet of squid. So I thought salt and pepper squid would be the way to go, but GG preferred it wasn’t battered, so I just marinated the lovely pre-cut squid rings….. Olive oil, salt, […]

I thought I would get my Aussie-Aussie-Aussie on come January 26th and try my hand at Anzac Biscuits. Never tried them before and they definitely seem like an icon biscuit. I googled for a recipe and my preference with biscuits is always for something chewy. Brown sugar seems the key to a chewy biscuit so […]

Food is a joy to me and I think tasting plates are just a brilliant creation and excuse to try numerous delicious flavours. The plate below came from Black Toms. One of the many lunches I went to in the blur that was December. I thought this was fairly impressive. The chicken skewers were super […]

Let’s face it, it’s not good for you. It’s an indulgence, a sometimes not an all the time food, but every blue moon – Dominos pizza really hits the spot. One of these times was the day before Australia Day, when my office decided we’d put on pizza for lunch courtesy of the social club. […]

I heart bargains. There’s really no other way to put it, and the recent spate of voucher websites have been right up my alley. Am I addicted to their mega deals? Perhaps… but the restaurant deals are an excellent excuse to try somewhere new.One such deal was for Pink Zulu, where for $79 you could, […]

Every now and then it’s lunchtime at work and I crave something tasty that isn’t particularly good for me…… queue the food court Chinese! Down Hay Street in West Perth there is a food court with a particularly nice serve yourself Chinese take-away place. I really like it. I always go the same choices, but […]

It was a Thursday night and as I worked out at the gym I got it in my head that I fancied a steak for dinner….. and that I fancied not having to cook it for myself J Now ideally I would have liked to have headed along to a steak night somewhere or other, […]
