Delicious magazine (one of my monthly indulgences) have set up a ‘cook’s challenge.’ Each month, they’re choosing a specific recipe for their readers to cook and photograph. Seeing as I do a lot of cooking and a lot of photographing anyway, I thought I’d give it a go. This month was cupcakes (see recipe lifted [...]

On my journalism MA, we were given the task of coming up with a magazine from scratch. After much umm-ing and ahh-ing we launched Bread & Butter – a (badly named, but otherwise excellent) magazine for independent food producers. Much to our excitement, we managed to bag the rugged, eccentric hunk of a man that [...]

If I could only eat one thing forever, pavlova would definitely rank in my top three (along with cheese and ice cream – I couldn’t possibly choose my favourite among them – it wouldn’t be fair.) It’s easy to make, it always looks spectacular, and I am yet to meet anybody who doesn’t like a [...]

Easter is well and truly over. Lent fasts are up, supermarkets are flogging off 2 for 1 chocolate eggs, and it’s all about the Royal Wedding now. If I were organised, (and if I didn’t have a job that kept me occupied from 8:30-6) then I definitely would have made and posted these blown eggs [...]

The wrong end of Rupert Street amongst the sex shops, there is something very cool going on. It’s so cool that you can’t make reservations. It’s so cool that it doesn’t even have a phone number or website. It’s so cool I walked past it twice before I read the tiny ‘Spuntino’ lettering on the [...]

I’ve got a thing about eating off big plates. Weird. My plates are so hopelessly big they don’t fit in the dishwasher or the cupboard. I came up with a cunning plan though, and bought an enormous plate rack off ebay, which would have all been very well if I’d been competent enough to attach [...]
