- Gastronome
- Mittagong, NSW, Australia
- An almost lifelong interest in food, wine and all things gastronomical which was sparked by a visit to one of my father’s friends who had a genuine first edition of Larousse Gastronomique (in French). I enjoyed poring through this tome, even though my knowledge of the language was scant. Subsequent visits had me hooked. Coupled with frequent forays into the pungent, flavoursome atmosphere of suburban delis and the rapidly disappearing world of ethnic grocers with their giant vats of olives and pickles, sacks of pulses it was not long before I started using some of those ingredients to do some cooking of my own. Over time, I developed a love for and knowledge of the many varieties of cheeses on offer at the various delis and of course, the eternally famous institution, David Jones’ Food Hall. Yes, there were cheeses of many varieties available, even in the sixties. My thirst for knowledge of gastronomy and culinary skills, also led to the development of another consuming passion, the sourcing and collecting of books on the subject of food, wine and gastronomy, including a specialisation in books on cheese.

What the heck is a skinny latte, a skinny cap, a soy flat white ? - Just trendy language;
Cows naturally produce genuine full cream milk, not skim milk or soy.
When it comes to food and beverages, natural is best. if you want to lose weight, a simple rule prevails; all things in moderation. Eat a little less and exercise more. By that, I don't mean join a gym, just walk a little more each day. it's really simple.
Why spoil a good coffee with fake milks? Are you really going to get fat by drinking what nature intended?
Become more aware about what you eat. Learn where your food comes from and make your own decisions, don't follow the crowd and don't get misled by the misconceptions and fads created and delivered by advertisers.
