Cocktails & Cooking
When we’re not on the road, Christina and I are always looking for ways to bring the world to us. We love playing with recipes that make it feel like we’re back in some of our favourite destinations, whether they’re cocktails, snacks or full-blown meals.
Here are some of our favourites that we think you’ll love.

Cocktails
Before I met Christina, I was pretty much just a beer guy. But then she introduced me to my first gin martini in a little bar in Newtown and a whole new world opened up.
We’ve even released our own cocktail e-book, which you can download here!

The Sweet Spot
The best part about being an adult is you can do what you like – even have dessert first!
Here are our favourite post-dinner (or pre-dinner – don’t let anyone tell you otherwise) dishes that not only taste superb, but impress your dinner guests too.

Snacks, Starters & Party Plates
When you’re looking for something small and neat, these dainties are just the treat! Don’t worry though, we haven’t written the recipes so they rhyme – even if the food is poetry!
From bites we’ve recreated from our travels to snacks and sweets we’ve inherited from family and friends (and even some we’ve made up ourselves), these delicious morsels will live in your head rent free till you make them again!

The Main Event – Big Dishes To Fill Your Soul
Heart-felt and heart-warming, when it comes to satisfying centrepieces, these recipes will not only fill you up, but also impress anyone you might have coming for dinner.
While these dishes all have a bit of the travel influence to them, most are on our own personal regular rotation when we’re home.
Comforting, satiating and delicious, these recipes are all well-tested and bulletproof.

Travel-Inspired Recipes
Whenever we travel, Christina and I are always looking out for food inspiration that we can bring home with us. While it’s fun to reminisce about great things you’ve eaten while you’ve been away, it’s even better if you can recreate them in your own kitchen.
Memories are all well and good, but why not relive the moment with your knife and fork?!
