Pebbly Beach Escapes is, without a doubt, one of the most beautiful and peaceful locations on the NSW coast. A wonderful collection of accomodation reminese of the classic Australian summer holiday home gone luxuary. I was lucky enough to be invited to stay and cook for an entire week for a family celebrating a special birthday event at Pebbly Beach escapes. The brief was mainly vegan and vegetarian food with a little bit of local seafood and a nod to gluten free.

Read MoreAdmittedly, a touch of food fatigue tinged with trepidation had creeped upon me approaching our lunch at Hide Upstairs. Two previous days of Michelin starred eating had consequences, two stars in two days… blah blah blah. How was I to consume more! I know it sounds pompous and at a level of wanker-ness that my wife says I’m only capable of, but I was almost a little over Michelin.

Read MoreI like nothing better than a challenge, as as a private chef you never know where your going to end up, who you might be cooking for or what it is you can be cooking.
Read MoreIt was beautiful early winters day, fingers of sunlight, lush green paddocks and the late tint of autumn leaves. Robertson in the southern highlands just outside of Sydney, is a neat little country town with a rather up market looking restaurant just next to the local Massey tractor dealer.
Read MoreWhile in London I regularly purchase wine from the Jeroboams store on Heath Street, which is an agreeable distance from my flat. I like, on each trip, to concentrate on an individual wine region. Last year it was the wines of Tuscany. Mainly Sangiovese based wines. Super concentrated wines with tight tannins and big flavours, Chianti’s and Montepulciano and the like.
