Product Spotlight: Dello Mano Brownies
Now, look – I’ve told you before I’m a bit of a bad-ass baker. I don’t mean to brag, but I know my way around the kitchen. Let’s just say the rolling pin and I have an understanding. Despite my pretty excellent efforts in churning out cakes, tarts, and pies, there is [...]
Spotlight: Tognini’s Spring Hill Re-Opening
Man, I love a good deli. There’s something about a huge, viewable range of fresh produce, cheeses, meats, and antipasti that just excites me. Perhaps I was meant to be born an elegant, sexy gal from Perugia, and not a bumbling, is-that-really-another-food-stain-on-my-shirt chick from Canada. [...]

Ripple Chocolate Massage Review
Ripple Chocolate? Lotion I know, I know. A massage is not edible. It is not a place to visit, a dish to eat, or a bar to sit in. This massage, however, was a chocolate massage – see, definite food involvement. And besides, this is my blog and I can write whatever I damn well [...][...]

Quick Bites: Valentines Day 2010 Special
Ah, V-Day: you either love it, or you go around scowling and talking about corporate agendas and advertising scams. I’ve had some shockers in my time, even when I wasn’t single. One year I didn’t go out or do anything for it, received no present, and had to pay my (now ex) boyfrien[...]
Spotlight: Vapiano Launch
I’ve now walked a red carpet twice in my life. The first time, it was worn, quite threadbare, and I’m pretty sure it was red because someone spilt goon on it. My second red carpet experience was much nicer (and cleaner). Vapiano officially launched last week, and pulled out all the stops[...]

Quick Bites Special: Australia Day 2010
My God I love Australia Day. A day where you can run around in ruggers, drink VB, and wear multi-coloured Zinc on your face without judgement is okay with me. Personally, I prefer to crash a friend’s/lover’s/random’s BBQ on the day, but if you’d like to venture out and celebr[...]

Gazebo Review
I’m a creature of habit when it comes to food. At 10.30am, nearly every day, I can be found in front of my computer eating two fresh dates and sipping instant coffee. I always eat my soft lollies before my chocolate ones. And you’ve read before about my liking for ordering the same break[...]

Sassafras Review
It is the last day of Movember for 2009 today, people. For those of you who don’t know what Movember is (and can I just say: FAIL. Fail to you), it’s a month where guys grow mos, money for prostate cancer and men’s depression is raised, and awareness is spread about these two issue[...]

2009 Good Food & Wine Show Round-up
Mind Your Manners I’m the youngest child. While being the youngest rocks (your parents are sort of over it by the time they get to you and let you run wild), it also means you have to learn to fight for things. Meal times, snack times, birthday cake-you’re the smallest, so you have to ge[...]
