, A recent visit to Perth had me falling down a rabbit hole, knife and fork in hand, into the culinary wonderland that is Fremantle Markets. Here, food vendor after food vendor beckoned, “Eat Me” with their pillowy bao buns, enchanted egg brioche, spell-binding pastries, fairytale fudge, sweetly magical honey cakes and more. And yes, […] Read more…
Italy’s enchanting Ravenna is a treasure chest of art, history and culture and though it may not be as famous as Rome, Florence or Venice, it’s a little slice of heaven for art lovers, literature lovers and history nuts. And, as it turns out, gluttonous seafood loving pre-schoolers. The extraordinary little city was once the capital of […] Read more…
“Land Ahoy” shouts Raffles, between a volley of “Arrhhs’ and “Yo ho ho’s”. As you do when sailing in to Dubrovnik’s Old Town on a timber galleon. The tiny traveller is convinced it is a real life pirate ship and, in a strange twist, it would appear the skipper concurs – proffering my small swashbuckler a feathered pirate […] Read more…
As if the wrinkles and middle age spread weren’t giveaway enough, I’m about to really show my age! Though Raffles & Sugarpuff are convinced I grew up in the ice age riding woolly mammoths to school, I’m actually a product of the Age of Aquarius… which may explain my penchant for sipping on tree hugging bleeding […] Read more…
The first and last time I ate a classic cheese fondue was in Europe. I was in my twenties, swanning around lovely Lake Lucerne with my now ex-husband. He annoyed me. I stabbed him with a fondue fork. The rest, as they say, is history. While the company was dubious at best, the fondue was […] Read more…
I’ve never been one to get excited by celebrities. I mean, they’re just people with strange jobs that put them in the public eye, right? In fact I’ve probably offended more than my fair share of stars with my ambivalence/lack of anything resembling a clue. For example, many years ago when I was young, frivolous […] Read more…
This post is brought to you by Oliving by Hans and Marmot Inc. Raffles has a thing for Spanish food. We think it comes in part from a deep and abiding love he has for his former pre-school teacher, a delightful Spanish Senorita, combined with an early epicurean jaunt to the glorious Spanish seaside town of San Sebastian, where we […] Read more…
Raffles is still eating his breakfast and he’s already talking about dinner, something that will come as a surprise to no one. Apparently my wee walking stomach “needs” Spaghetti Marinara. At 7am? Sugarpuff too is in a fishy frame of mind on this Monday morning and is also putting in her order, only for fish, […] Read more…
Before having any actual children Mr Eats World and I, staunch pacifists, made a vow that we would keep our offspring’s childhoods free of toy guns. But in all our idealistic fantasies of a violence free kiddy utopia we never anticipated that we might produce a child obsessed with Vikings, samurais and ninjas… and all […] Read more…
Waking up with something hard and pointy poking into my back is a fairly frequent occurrence. And, NO it’s not what you’re thinking, you saucy minxes. Unless of course you’re thinking of a Viking helmet. And by Viking helmet, I actually mean a Viking helmet… oh, and a three foot long sword. Both attached to […] Read more…
The Eats Worlds have been a tad pre-occupied with a new addition to the family these past few weeks. He’s an adorable wee thing we brought back from Canberra swaddled with great care and that, completely smitten, we fêted and fussed over. 60 grams of bouncing black Perigord Truffle from Terra Preta Truffles that the […] Read more…
Mr Eats World is not keen on surprises. And by not keen, I actually mean that he’d rather have his tongue beaten flat with a steak tenderiser than be on the receiving end of one. I’ve never actually been able to work out the reason behind his revulsion but it means spontaneous bursts of giftage tend to […] Read more…
