The Adelaide Baroque Orchestra

November 29 2018 News

The Adelaide Baroque Orchestra played for us at the Eatery last Thursday night; teasing us with their music making. Such a joy as they played and the sun set over the dam on a perfect evening. They played at the Yukaria Concert Hall in the Adelaide Hills on Saturday night to standing ovations and I'm not surprised. Not only their world class musicianship but the delight that bounced back from them to the small audience. WE were very lucky! May there be more such evening! Read the rest...

Maggie's food reflections from Europe Part 2

October 31 2018 Food wise

So many food experiences from our first day in Porto waiting for the rest of the group with a dish of clams simply served with the cooking juices, garlic and parsley; or sea bass in a salt casing cooked in a hot pan and flamed with great theatre. A seafood porridge; full of mussels, scamp and razor clams in a tomato broth with the juices again from cooking with fresh coriander, EVOO and stale bread and ‘making’ the porridge by the waiter stirring at the table. The first night of the trip we were bussed to Matosinhos, a town by the sea, and ate at Casa Serrao where the grilling of the fish was done on an outside charcoal barbecue; lines of these outside kitchens taking over the street; the smoke bellowing over the street long which was where the most perfect sardines caught that morning as whole fish with just EVOO were cooked; then the largest sea bream I had encountered; gutted and opened up to cook on the grill; the amazing caramelisation of the skin and the sides and cooked again to perfection. Such plenty on the table as we dissected the fish off the bone to begin with but then a few of us attacked the bones and the cheek and every bit of it so succulent I definitely ate more than I needed and the meal was nothing short of unbelievable yet so incredibly simple.
