Already warmed up - Masterchef Rant #325
Sun 18th Jul, 2010 |
|
| |
A tad different from any other podcast we've done. This one was impromptu after a dinner in the city while the Gourmet Wives were off watching some crap about sparkly vampires. We didn't have our usual recording equipment so you'll have to excuse a little of the audio quality. But we chat about a few places we've been. Notably Comme Kitchen, Verge and Dave on yet another #$*ing Masterchef #$*ing rant. Those with sensitive ears may want to skip this one.

Back again in Dave's kitchen. We chat about some American wine, some local food (some good, some not so much), and a little about Masterchef Season 2

Vue de Monde, Maze, wine and wagyu.
Fri 30th Apr, 2010 |
|
| |
Dave talks about recent visits to the big one. Vue de Monde. Also about his recent lunch at Maze, some excellent wines, and what to do (or perhaps not to do) to $70 worth of Wagyu.

Quails, pigs, twitter, and stuff
Wed 7th Apr, 2010 |
|
| |
Lachie's kitchen again this time around as you hear the wonderful sounds of quails getting deep fried while we chat about a place in the Yarra Valley to dine (Bella Vedere), a place in the city (Cumulus Inc) and a bit of cooking and drinking goes on.

Guillaume good, Embrasse not so much, and other stuff.
Thu 4th Mar, 2010 |
|
| |
Again a long time between podcasts. This time around we're discussing good times and bad. From the highs of Bistro Guillaume, to the lows of My Kitchen Rules. It's quite a ride.

Some of the best restaurants in the world.
Fri 15th Jan, 2010 |
|
| |
With Dave recently back from the US and some of the best restaurants in the world (#6 and #11 if the rankings are to be believed) it only seemed fair that we spoke about them. Closer to home we have a bit of a ramble about New Years (and resolutions), whether Melbourne has space for more high end restaurants, and whatever else comes to mind. This podcast also features music by Sweedish blues band Burnshee Thornside used under creative commons licence from magnatune.com

The USA, Embrasse, and the rest.
Wed 9th Dec, 2009 |
|
| |
A little long this time around (42:48), because it's been a while between podcasts. Most of the time I (Lachie) rabbit on about his trip to the USA, but also included is Dave's thoughts on Embrasse and possibly the most vulgar phrase ever used in a food review. Enjoy.

Lachie's kitchen and a trip to Beechworth
Tue 22nd Sep, 2009 |
|
| |
Once again from Lachie's kitchen. Don't talk about the cooking so much as they're not original creations, but recipes from Chef's Pencil. We do talk about the wines a fair bit, plus The Provenance in Beechworth, Taxi in Fed Square, and a bunch of other stuff.

Daylesford, Gingerboy, service and guests.
Sat 22nd Aug, 2009 |
|
| |
Dave is stressed out due to the impending arrival of guests, one of whom furnished the night with an excellent French red. As a result Dave's molecular gastronomy experiment goes awry. Well, it was either the stress or the fact that Dave had no idea what he was doing.
That aside it all goes swimmingly, join us for a discussion of places to eat and drink in Daylesford, a couple in the city, and how bad service can spoil a night out. Enjoy!

The Masterchef Final
Wed 22nd Jul, 2009 |
|
| |
Recorded the day after the first season of Masterchef's final. As a result the censor button got quite the work out. Also, we were forced to take an intermission because we wouldn't shut up. So it's a long one, but hopefully at least marginally entertaining.

A while between drinks
Sun 28th Jun, 2009 |
|
| |
Dave is back from Sydney after some fine dining north of the border. He also steps up his cooking with some rather ambitious experimentation. In the podcast we discuss food and wine as normal, plus the best burger in Melbourne, the best food Dave has eaten in a long while. Plus about a hundred other topics.
Enjoy.

The Masterchef Rant Episode
Sun 24th May, 2009 |
|
| |
Once again we come to you from Lachie's kitchen. Well, his in-laws kitchen, which comes with its own set of problems on top of the whole Lachie cooking thing.
This week Dave gets free reign to say what he wants about Masterchef, and boy does he do so. We also chat about a few restaurants as usual, a wine tour to Macedon, and the intimidation factor of being contacted by a head chef from a restaurant we reviewed.
Enjoy.

The Point, MoVida Next Door, Bistro Guillaume, and random chat
Tue 10th Mar, 2009 |
|
| |
Settle in, this is a bit of a long one. It has been a while between podcasts, so we've got a bit to get through. Not that we get through it, we kind of get side tracked instead.

Quails, Melbourne Food and Wine Festival, and tipping and service rants.
Mon 9th Feb, 2009 |
|
| |
In our first podcast for 2009 we discuss some new recipes that Dave is trying out.
We also give the Melbourne Food and Wine Festival a free plug, and some news from the Fed-Square wine tastings, with bonus ranting.
Continuing the ranting theme, we complain about various service customs that annoy one or both of us.

Lunch time at Dave's, more of Lachie's cooking, where to eat late at night and general whinging .
Mon 1st Dec, 2008 |
|

We whinge about places not being open, whinge about Gordon Ramsey taking too long to come to Australia, whinge about college food, whinge about a lack of sparkling wine(whine?) in bottle shops.
Good natured people that we are.

Lachie in the Kitchen, Shoya, Matsumoto and Knives
Tue 18th Nov, 2008 |
|
| |
Lachie's first appearance in the kitchen on the podcast. Not a lot of discussion of the cooking, but we wax lyrical about a couple of Japanese restaurants on different ends of the price spectrum. Also talk about knives, Jamie Oliver and the chopping block.

Turducken Day
Sat 1st Nov, 2008 |

Turducken Day. We talk all things meat stuffed with meat. Other topics covered are pumpkin carving, an exciting visit to the forums, and a possible ranking system for our reviews. Not to mention our extra special guests in the second half of the podcast.
Sorry about the quality of the podcast, we had several technical issues
