How to be a successful food blogger…

Myself and The teen did the books. 

Keep all of your receipts folks!

But I got Linda Williams of Bright Blue Skies(linda@brightblueskies.com) to fill out my tax self assessment form, give me advice on what I could claim for and what I couldn't.

Still, it is kind of disappointing to notice how the majority of food-related media stories are not really centred around food itself, but use it as a platform to build a show. Too often, the suspense, the emotion and…

Grab your chance!!!

What is the first thing you offer a guest? A chair, or “Cadrega” in Milanese dialect.

The idea of joining the growing movement of underground restaurants came after a birthday dinner in a famous “three stars” venue in London. Coming home after a marvellous meal we were both thinking: “it was really a great experience, but so distant from the homemade ravioli we had last night…”

Was our home cooking better than that famous chef? Surely not. It was simply different and this is of…
