I am a traveller who so enjoys eating ... Sometimes too much ....

After doing a course at Leiths, I decided to work full time in some professional kitchens. Shocking reality to what I imagined it to be .... But a good one ......

After nearly a year living in South America, I am back living in London. Trying to sample all the delights of everything I missed whilst I was away .....

Life in the Country ( A New One)

Well we’ve been here in Finca Cañaveral for a couple of weeks now. Most of that has been cleaning, dusting and throwing a lot of stuff away. As I found out today that the owners hadn’t been here for about a year, and I’m not sure they cleaned that much before anyhows.
The owners are some parents of friends, and as I mentioned before they don’t come here much nowadays. So as we were looking for somewhere to rent and they wanted to rent it out. Perfect match. Well we are only paying the wages of t… Continue

Cheap Cuts 1: Beef Short Ribs

These past few weeks, since stopping work, I have been back in my own kitchen and cooking a lot …. But the best bit is, I’ve been cooking the things I love to cook. Offal, and a hell of a lot of it as well, and cuts that most people turn their noses up at. Why? I’ve never understood the snobbery with people and food.
So, on my menu lately has been a lot of liver and kidneys. Haven’t got around to buying hearts yet.
I have a thing about lamb’s kidneys. If I could I would use them exclusively, but… Continue

Sorry, you asked about living in Italy. It has its good points and its bad points. One of its many good points is of course food. Under bad points? Every stereotype you've ever heard about southern Italy is true and has probably been played down :-)

Thanks for the comment Dave, you're too kind.

The Silver Spoon is a great book. I have some reservations about the English translation though. If you learn to disregard the cooking times and quantities for a lot of the recipes, it's still a great reference. I mean that :-) Italian cookbooks are full of such terms as 'cook until done' and 'add the right amount of' and whoever translated TSP seems to have taken a wild stab in the dark when they provided cooking times for the English version. I seem to remember that it recommends cooking green beans for up to 20 minutes and then later warns about overcooking :-) Maybe they've heard us Brits like our veg mushy :-)

Thank you Dave.
Glad you like the blog. As you said there isn't that many blogs on Middle Eastern food especially Syrian cuisine which is very poorly represented on the net and in the media.
Thank you for stopping by and do come back.

Hi Dave
Glad you like the pictures. I'm currently using a Pentax Optio 3x zoom 4x mega pixels. Its about about 4 years old so I'm learning to work with it as its not brilliant at close ups. What I've worked out so far tho is to think of the composition/background before shooting. I chuck lots of the photos I take and then crop those that are good tho you lose some resolution doing this. From a bit of research I can see there are really good cameras at about the £150 mark but one of the key things is composition. I've been reading a book called 'Digital Food Photography' by Lou Manna (he's a food phot pro) and thats helped - its on Amazon and really makes you think about the compostion stuff.
Just taking loads and looking at them helps as well.

Thanks for your comments!

I'm going to add you to my googlereader and have a good nose about your blog. I too enjoy food rather too much sometimes - thankfully my New Year's Resolution has turned into a running bug, so the more I run the more I can eat!
