When it comes to October, Halloween is just around the corner, when we can become creative, dressing in a fashion that would make you think, “Is that a real zombie!” You know that it is not real; it is not going to harm you. Is that the same as riding on a ghost train, […]
We only say this as we had been asked how much food one needed and what they should order for a birthday reception. This may sound easy as we are caterers, but this was a question from a friend who was arranging an evening at a restaurant in the city. They were given a list […]
A cold buffet laid out on a summer evening, placed on a table at the office, for guests to help themselves at a party or even a wedding. The buffet or even sharing platters ticks a lot of boxes; once set up, it can be grazed on over a period of time or ready […]
Burgers, where do we start? The choice is no longer between a cheeseburger or non-cheese burger or, come to that, seeded or seedless bun. There is a myriad of fillings; patty, beef, pork, lamb, vegetarian, vegan, fish, and not forgetting chicken. Then you have tomato, salad, mushroom, pickles, slaw, sauces and a variety of cheeses. […]
So while in Brisbane and liking all things food, we had to pay a visit to Eat Street. This is a large area of the old docklands covered in pop-up food bars built up with containers. Some of the bars are under a large cover, and there you can also find bands and dj’s entertaining […]
Easter is the time for new beginnings when spring starts to show what has been hidden away beneath the earth. It’s also a time for families to get together, to sit and eat and enjoy the year ahead. A Sunday roast was always the highlight of our week as a family, though we never understood […]

It’s not too far off when witches would be flying around the cold dark skies. An abundance of ghouls and ghosts and all things creepy are out there to scare someone, you hope. Pumpkins carved are lit up and placed outside the front door, a homing beacon for trick-or-treaters to know you would have sweets […]
Colours create instant impressions in the mind, so reactive and instinctual that we don’t even recognize them happening. This could go back to our far removed ancestors, who depended on at a glance, telling a toxic berry from a tasty one, a potential snack from a venomous bite. Somewhere along the way, this deeply ingrained […]
Hot days are when we deserve ice cream and ice lollies. Well, that’s what we think. Hot all day, no cool breeze, no beach to hand and no paddling pool, London gets hot!. But with a freezer to hand, we decided to make ice lollies and ice cream and play around with the flavours to […]
