Parsi Egg

June 24, 2019

I first had these jammy tomato eggs when I was 18. Nick and I had just started dating and every time we hung out at his place, he cooked me something. I didn't know it at the time that the key to my heart was through my stomach but apparently he did. On our third date after a particularly hard day at college, he cooked these eggs for me.

May 14, 2019

When I was little, mum had a round oven with a glass top that looked unusually like a porthole or the domed round window of a bunker when laid flat. It was the most magical thing on earth. It made cakes – sweet and savoury ones. The first time I had a savoury cake, I was about five or six years old and I was intrigued – not impressed but definitely intrigued... Read More >>

Kaffir Lime And Matcha Gimlet

May 10, 2019

Ever since we started the tradition of Cocktail & Oyster Night, my culinary world has opened up to a whole new playground. Mixology! I never realized how invested I would become in the art of mixing cocktails. It shouldn't have come as a surprise to me.
