COFFEE, COFFEE, COFFEE NEW
I have very exciting news to share with all our readers. We have lots of talented people in our Club (just historically it happened that they all got together under one roof); there are also lots of super gifted media VIPs. A couple of days ago the Melbourne International Coffee Expo organisers and the manager of the PR company that ran the expo and was looking after marketing and publicity this year, emailed me to say that our video showcasing #MICE2017 created by brilliant hands and mind of Fabrizio Evans at Group 42 was absolutely fabulous and that they loved it very much. The video was rated on the top of the coffee expo video list and it will be used for the expo promotion next year! I would like to congratulate Fab and his crew who worked on filming and editing so hard (nevertheless he said they had lots of fun) on this achievement! I am sure in the future we will see more successful stories to tell our followers because as I said we have lots of talents in our crew! Taking this opportunity to say big 'thank you' to Prime Creative Media, BeanScene Magazine and personally to #LaurenWinterbottom and #SarahBaker for their kind words addressing us, as well as for the opportunity to cover the exhibition and for organising it so incredibly well. the #MICE2017 video footage can be followed via this link: https://youtu.be/bXZIgRrY1-I on one of our channels and https://vimeo.com/211629841 on #Group42 vimeo channel photos below: Eugen Pitulice#MICE2016

YET BRUNETTI IS STILL HERE ON MY LIST NEW
at Brunetti before media screening of the #ThingsToCome - calling the morning-and-yawning-AFL without a permanent success.
CALAMARI AND MORE AT PARK-MORE NEW
there IS something I can not imagine the world without: - calamari tentacles and peanut chilli chicken on rice with no chilli cooked with extra care too at Dumpling Chef Parkmore
N18 RAMEN NEW
invited for Friday dinner with Misha and Irene at No18 Ramen Fitzroy St Kilda - no one can figure out how they print numbers, signs and letters on the seaweed sheets... perhaps the duck knows...
BRUNETTI NEW
Brunetti, it never fails - if not coffee than the cakes are ok for quick breakfasts just before the media screenings at Nova... with one purpose I swear: want to hear what the little guys are talking about on the screen and not inside my stomach.
OLIVES VS ANCHOVIES NEW
QUESTION: if you plant an olive stuffed with anchovies what will grow first out of it: an olive tree or a group pf anchovies? ANSWER: ...
ok, the right answer invented by Masha M: depends where you plant: it - under the water or in the ground
LESHA'S BIRTHDAY WITH FAMILY NEW
Decided all to go for home made meals this time: Masha's salads rock! - they are mainly pinterested but I should ask her for the recipes - the kale is massaged (!!).the sweet potatoes are cut in smallest possible pieces and get roasted as well as the walnuts; the beans and the peas soften the harshness of asparagus and the spinach - she puts her soul and imagination in cooking; babushka's cooking is hearty and tasty - old school: we ask her to go for the roasted vegetables with spices. My specialty mainly focuses of slow meat cooking - 6 hours did it good for this lamb. My potato cakes with salmon also went like hotcakes with even asking for the additions from the kitchen to the table. Lesha's table service was super class. Masha's presents are always a blast of the evening - photography of the forest for the fox - the fox was there last year! Lesha says big thank you - he also got a 2 terrabites removable hard drive meaning there will be more sitting at the computer.... also thanking Irina Shutkina from the European Bazaar Shop for the "out-of-this-world" cherry cake that was gone in a blink of an eye!
LESHA'S BIRTHDAY WITH FRIENDS NEW
Yoshi Lis' birthday with friends yesterday. Lesha thanks everyone for the warm company and nice presents, he feels very touched.
SOMEONE'S NOT BIRTHDAY BREAKFAST NEW
you probably thought it was today's Alex's birthday breakfast but it was not... and we got so many sweet and savory presents today from the European Bazaar Shop I will be uploading the photos I think for the next couple of days... :)
BRUNETTI AND PIERRE NEW
Brunetti Carlton and me before screening Frantz, new film I am totally in love with,,, or perhaps it is ever so graceful and more Yves Saint Laurent-y than anything else: Pierre Niney..
TWO LOST BOYS NEW
last weekend we had our coffees at Two Lost Boys that was rated on so many lists as one of the top best coffee places in #Windsor. It was smooth - yes... and the service was sensational! - very friendly and warm - direct from the owners. I enjoyed the company and the girls who came to talk about us, share their knowledge and to support our cause. Thanking Jasna, Shroug and Hina.

“Who said coffee was simple?” by Rouben Dickranian
I am a very passionate person when it comes to coffee and so in writing this review it proved very easy for me.
The Melbourne International Coffee Expo (MICE) is a wonderful event to attend if you like your coffees. It first opened its doors this year on the 30th of March and will end on 1st of April 2017. There are over 120 exhibitors from the coffee, tea, dairy and ancillary supply industries. Th MICE deals not only with coffee. I bumped in to a young lady, her name is Vivian Lees. Vivian is an artist and she uses coffee to create artwork on paper. She is very talented and I really liked her work. This is only one of many examples of the coffee used not only for drinking.
There are companies selling coffee roasting machines with the sizes varying: for small coffee shops up to industrial machines. The diversity of the coffee related machinery is amazing and perhaps would interest not only the professionals but the keen observers: there are companies specialising in water cleaners and much more. The fascinating part for me is the small companies that import coffee from remote countries which are of quite a high standard. There is a famous saying: "You learn something new everyday" and sure enough I have been taught something new today at the coffee expo. Myanmar produces Arabica coffee beans and I can assure you after having three cups of coffee at their stand I was really impressed.
The coffees available are far and few between, The tumeric and honey flavours were an interesting concept and really intriguing to my palate. Another interesting company is the Chai Spices, where "yum" is a great word to describe their drinks.
If you love your coffee, this is a must convention to attend. The exhibition touches on topics you never really comprehend seeing at a coffee event. The passion projected by the people displaying their products is remarkable. I walked around and could not believe, how each and every person is eager to grab you and talk to you; they want to explain what they produce in depth. Who said coffee was simple?

TASSAL SALMON SHOP KEW: THE ROULADE COOKING CLASS NEW website
14/03/17
We all love the taste of fresh salmon. but the dishes made out of smoked salmon have that special flavour that is perfect for roulades. The two dishes Michael offered to us was very easy to make and absolutely delicious. Michael, our chef of the morning showed us some tips and tricks on how to use smoked salmon.
You will need for the filling: cream cheese spread - a cup of Philadelphia cheese melted in a steam pot - basil - dill / capers - salmon slices (optional) lemon balm leaves/springs - all to be mixed in a paste
You will need for the pastry: - butter 60 g - 1/3 cup of plain flour - 4 eggs separated - 1 cup milk - 1 cup cheese (tasty/cheddar etc) for the pastry making: separate the eggs into 4 yolk plus 4 whites spread the oil on the baking tray, cover it with baking paper whisk the egg whites place the 60 g butter in the pot on medium flame , add 1/3 cup of flour, stir all the time so the mixture does not burn, add one cup of milk gradually and watch the mixture to thickening up, add a cup of cheese, add the egg yolks a little at a time and then add the egg whites. The mixture will have a strange consistency but you should not get upset - this is how it should look. after that take a pot off the flame. put the mixture on the tray spreading it evenly as shown on the pictures. make no gaps in the pastry. your over should be 180 degrees C cook it for 10-15 min, and try not to overcook it - it should be soft enough to roll when the pastry is read put it on the backing paper and spread the cheese mixture evenly on the top of it. add lemon balm and salmon pieces evenly on the top of the cheese mixture roll the pastry tight enough especially the first turn so it stays in a good shape all together and does not fall apart. roll and tuck in - this is the most important part of the roulade making. place the roulade in the fridge for 1-2 hours. slice and serve with decorations

CIDER AND PORK FESTIVAL WA NEW press release by Manish Bolla
The festival featured free cider tastings, Perth's premier pork food trucks, cider-making demos, pork and cider masterclasses, live music and roaming buskers and entertainers
With more than 20 of WA and Australia's top cider and pork producers shared and talked about their produce. This event was not to be missed with array of pork dishes and locally produced ciders.
I myself pigged out on various delicacies such as Bbq pork ribs, Crispy Pork belly and amazing pork skewers…Tasted about 10 to 20 different ciders and felt like a cider connoisseur. I can certainly say WA ciders are some of the best in the world.
Hot 39 degree and WA fashionistas were on full swing wearing latest trend of hats,singlets and shoes which can be seen in the images taken. Local musicians played the best summer songs to keep the mood going.
Can't wait for the next Pork and Cider Event and do it all over again.
B3 BBQ NEW
...and then I thought: the last teasing food photo for the weekend should be somehow connected to something you already know (Bi-2?) ... for it was our small but cute discovery last week: B3 BBQ Brunswick where the burgers are so good that they are only better at the Third Wave Cafe Prahran. B3 is so cozy and sleek at the same time (thumbs up for the designer) you will not want to leave esp when it is almost 30+ outside: music, flowers and the friendly and genuinely smiling girls and guys serving you and...dadada... one very smooth coffee - at these times... well, I noticed Alex also likes fashion magazines :) I also thought if there is a B1 anywhere it must be B3! check this out:http://b3bbq.com.au/

NED'S BONUS PHOTOS: DOUBLE ZERO PIZZA CUCHINA
TOP THREE COFFEES
we were told of Prahran, Victoria, Australia / Windsor, Victoria, Australia best coffee shops. Morris Jones Restaurant & Cocktail Bar, 163 Chapel St, Windsor was among the top three ones. The only way to check it of course is to try it: latte for me and hotchocolate (one word no capitals) for Mr Ned Vorkapic. dont know about the hotchoc. the coffee was very smooth but the aftermath was "o-gogo-gogo" (pretty strong) Ned (as a rule) asked me to photograph him for (all) his girlfriend(s) with his cuppa. For some reason he thinks he looks gorgeous on photos. Let's see how many "likes" he will snap this time...
I think I learnt my lesson today: never leave the plate so low on the bench - some naughty paws and teeth can get it... 2/3 of Alex's breakfast was gone before I even called him - lucky I made some photos, so Alex said: "can you show me at least how my breakfast looked like before Dasha got it?" here we go:

BOHEMIAN BAR & RESTAURANT PAELLA COOKING CLASSES website
press release by Jennifer Zaman Seafood Paella Cooking Class
Located in the beautiful South Wharf of Docklands, Melbourne, this Spanish restaurant is something to look out for. Apart from drawing food lovers to its exquisite cuisine prepared under the expertise of Chef Gerard and Sous-Chef Lorenzo Casu, it also attracts them to its special Paella cooking classes.
Organised twice a month during summer i.e. the first and last Saturdays and once a month during winter, these classes have become truly popular within its very first year. Paella lovers throng the restaurant on the scheduled date and time with a bid to learn how to cook this enchanting dish under the expert and friendly supervision of sous-chef Lorenzo.
Last week I was invited to participate in one such class at the restaurant and I could not be happier with the experience. The class was full with 12 participants including me (the maximum intake per class). As soon as we entered, the staff there made us feel welcome and offered coffee/tea/water. The cooking stations were already arranged with everything necessary in an absolutely neat order. Gradually, the staff began to bring in all the ingredients that we were going to use to cook our Paella. The restaurant provided for everything, so one can just walk into one of these classes (need to book earlier) with friends or family or both and share this relaxing along with a learning experience. The session runs for an hour and half, which includes cooking the dish and enjoying it later with a glass of wine.
It was a first of its kind to me and I would definitely love to do this again. I would highly recommend our readers to indulge in this fun-filled session with the very helpful and talented sous-chef Lorenzo. Hope the photographs would make you drool.
Paella tastes even better when you cook it yourself, trust me !
