Summer celebrations are simply the best!

Ice cream really is underrated, and this pistachio version absolutely hits the right notes, on top of chocolate crumb base

One-man show as always, doing a fantastic menu for 12 tonight. Always love doing the duck dish, though it’s a tricky sauce, but worth it. Cheers!

12/03/2023

Muscovy Duck Leg topped with a pancetta, fennel seed and sage mixture. Simple celery salad with walnut and Nicoise olives was bright and fresh, acidic against the richness of the duck. Perfect start to the week!

Finishing focaccia with a nice oil and allowing to rest brings out the best! Served alongside a beautiful chicken and orzo soup.

11/19/2023

New creation of a braised wild boar ragu with fresh pappardelle pasta. Well balanced, not gamey, and soon to be added to the menu offerings.

These dishes would hail from central Italy. Arborio Rice stuffed tomatoes, Pan Roasted Chicken with Peppers and wine, and a warm softened green salad using Escarole lettuce, black olives and chile flakes. They all worked quite nicely together, but maybe not the salad as much.

11/04/2023

Cranked up the heat on this oven baked chicken breast and hot Italian sausage; hit the rice with stewed tomatoes, cayenne, thyme and plenty of paprika. Delish!

When that creamy, parmy vodka sauce hits the back of your throat, you feel what makes it stand in a class by itself.

10/26/2023

Braised chicken and sweet Italian sausage, cooked together in a thyme, coconut milk based sauce with potato and carrot. Delish !

Nice to find just an eight pounder for small gathering this year. Happy Thanksgiving to all!

Wonderful providing the culinary for this lovely couple in celebrating their recent marriage with friends. They created an awesome menu, from the peanut-chicken satays, shrimp cocos tail , Caesar salad, awesome roasted tomato soup, beef Wellington with a fabulous Demi-glacé sauce, and finished with a classic crepe filled with warmed and sliced apples. Fabulous evening, and I was honoured to serve.

Had the pleasure of providing full day chef services for this wonderful bachelorette group of 17. About 15 different dishes served, including several vegetarian. Great day and lovely group.

09/17/2023

I may do a dozen bachelorette parties each year, all different, all fun!

This year when you’re making squash or pumpkin soup, try grilling instead of traditional roasting. Olive oil, 425, and turn them over a couple times. Only takes 25 min, and a fabulous flavour boost to your soup. The black char easily scrapes off.

Currently addicted to making apple pie; bit of effort and worth the outcome

09/06/2023

First of many this season

08/26/2023

Great story. I met Ricardo today who actually makes this fantastic Argentinian chimichurri sauce, and folks, it’s the real deal. Check ingredients pic. Marinated the chicken 2 hrs and it was succulent. I never buy pre-made sauce, but this one’s a winner, so please check out mamaschimichurri.com and order. You can use so many ways, meats, marinade, veggies.

08/22/2023

Yep, our Sebastian

08/13/2023

No better summer salad than using various tomatoes, fresh mozzarella slices and pearls, best olive oil along with just a few drops of quality balsamic, and bang you’ve got a stellar salad

08/11/2023

What, my fav two desserts at one event? Good planning indeed

08/09/2023

Two key ingredients in my Bourbon BBQ sauce is star anise, which has a black liquorice flavour, and cinnamon stick - much better than ground cinnamon when simmering. Both are removed before purée. Tasty stuff!

08/06/2023

When a friend hires you, it’s different and even more special, and you embrace the opportunity. This was a fabulous menu, and a pleasure to prepare

07/03/2023

Where there’s smoke there’s something tasty

06/26/2023

Classic dishes served for this 60s themed apps and dinner, lakeside

06/20/2023

No matter how you cook it, halibut’s a beautiful fish that works well with fresh herbs, scallions and a hint of garlic, in light butter and EVOO dressing.

06/20/2023

Been a busy spring, and feels great serving up the men’s golf league for their Monday round. Beautiful smoked pork, ale-based bbq sauce and a tangy Asian style slaw.

06/14/2023

Sometimes it’s all about the meat with some beef short ribs and finishing off the smoked wings, and a few grilled veggies for good measure

05/27/2023

Home pad thai, for quick Friday night delish!

05/19/2023

Seriously great sausage rolls, with a couple phyllo pasties for asiago and artichoke flavours
