My experience at Heston Blumenthal’s Fat Duck Melbourne – The Lowdown on the Menu, Photos and Dish Reviews

My admiration for Heston Blumenthal started when I first saw him on TV and was introduced to his unique approach to food. Heston is seen as one of the pioneers of Molecular Gastronomy, which is described as an application of scientific principles to the understanding and development of food preparation.

Quick and Easy Healthy Chicken Pot Pie Recipe (No cream included)

Chicken pot pie is one of those dishes that reminds me of home. Not only because it’s comfort food but it also brings me back to my memories of a childhood when my mum brought us to Dome restaurant to devour in delicious pot pies. But this recipe in particular is inspired by What’s in my fridge?

Thai Noodle Salad with Grilled Lemongrass and Ginger Prawns Recipe

One of my favourite South East Asian dishes to eat on a hot boiling day is a cooling noodle salad – Light, tangy and flavourful.

Seafood (Crispy Fish, Calamari, Prawns) and Vegetable Malaysian Stir Fry

Seafood (Crispy Fish, Calamari, Prawns) and Vegetable Malaysian Stir Fry

There’s something about the stir-fry that seems to daunt a lot of people.
