Our culinary adventure one sticky step at a time...
I went to Planet Cake and loved it!
My sister gave me the book as a gift some months back. Since then I have flipped through the pages as many times as I read Mr Darcy’s love letter to Elizabeth. Similarly, in vain, I struggled and my cakes just did not do.
So New Year’s Resolution – enrol for Planet Cake Basic 101 decorating class….
How foodies relax on the weekend…
OK. I was sick of my working week. Tired of the city monotony – the sea of dark suits, mediocre paper-cup-coffees and less than sanitary train rides to and from the daily grind. I needed an escape from the “real world” to the ever ellusive garden of Zen to unwind. To me this is somewhere peaceful and quiet with waterviews and great food in its surrounds – and I think I may have found it just an hour’s drive north of Sydney. It is Killcare.
Whilst many of you may not have heard of Killcare, you will undoubtedly have heard of Italian restauranteur extraordinare Stefano Manfredi best known for Restaurant Manfredi, Bel Mondo and di Manfredi coffee. He now runs the restaurant at Bells @ Killcare – a gorgeous, boutique European style country house hotel (and very much recommended by us for a relaxing weekend!).

An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, a professionally designed webpage banner for a dinner at Omerta. This is the story of how our website logo came to be.
Ellie, our gorgeous and talented friend, offered to give our website a nip tuck job – turning our feeble attempts of graphic design into something worthy of welcoming readers to our site. In return we treated Ellie out to a dinner at Omerta (thanks to @Carmr, @Reemski & @felixexplody for the recommendation)
Fancy a steak?
There is something about a steak - a juicy, melt in the mouth and full of flavour steak that really satisfies. We were so excited when something so simple, yet so ellusive was found at MUMU Grill - a recommendation by fellow foodie @Tom - two thumbs up! MUMU Grill is run by Craig Macindoe (@Chefmumu) who prides himself on sourcing the very best in sustainable and organic produce sourced from around Australia.
We started our evening with a wonderfully smooth chicken liver pate served with some bread toasted on the wood fired grill. So yum!
