I had a blast at Business Chicks’ 9toThrive event in Melbourne and came home completely inspired.
As a present photobooks ticks a lot of boxes – plus they’re fun to make.
I almost always leave a cafe thinking about how I could recreate the breakfast I just ate in my own kitchen. This recipe is the result of one such experiment.
Last week of my internship and I chose dumplings. So many options, but I went for two favourites of mine while in China.
I was excited to see chicken katsu curry on this menu – the Japanese do schnitzels as well as any Austrian.
I had heard of char kway teow, but hadn’t tried it. Flat rice noodles – wok-fried with prawns, fishcake, egg, spring onion, beanshoots in a brown sauce. Sounds nice, right?
The “smart” option of a lemon and herb chicken topped with basil pesto and roasted peppers served with sweet potato mash and greens sounded good to me.
You’ve probably heard of Spud Bar, taking the humble baked potato and doing fancy things to it.
Despite the menu containing such tasty Mexican fare as burritos, nachos and quesadillas, I went for… a salad. A tasty salad, mind you.
These buns are stale, past the point of resuscitation via a few minutes under the grill. What now? Well, you can turn them into French toast!
This souvlaki or “souva” as it’s referred to on the menu was made up of a thick, white pita bread, filled with chicken, parsley, onions, mustard aoili… and chips. Yes chips.
I was after a bento box today – a Japanese take-away meal that is normally purchased at train stations and includes a combination of sushi, rice, omelette, dumplings and maybe a sweet bean mixture to finish.
