We had a fantastic fry-up for breakfast last Sunday: bacon, garlic mushrooms, scrambled eggs, spinach and toast. As usual, I had the pleasure of eating the pan-roasted garlic cloves. On one slice of lightly buttered toast I spread kaya, and on the other I spread St Dalfour blueberry with cranberry preserve. Not only did ...

Pizza lunch for J's birthday

26 September 2008

Last Thursday was my workmate J’s birthday! We decided to try the East End Pizza Bar – this is one place on Royal Street we haven’t eaten at before.

I packed Jac four different sandwiches, along with some leftover KFC coleslaw (in a silicone cupcake mould), lettuce, baby roma tomatoes, a sliced mushroom and strawberries.
These were ...

It was yummy, served on freshly cooked rice. Generous servings were ...
