Right next phase in the tumultuous ramshackle journey that is my culinary career - we go to Skool www.skool.com/food-cooking...

If you thought we were snarky may I present … Colin on TikTok #MKR

One more comment before I go cook dinner - menu planning and cohesion is THE crucial stage in getting through the Instant Restaurant stage. So much of the cooking fails are a result of fucking this up. #MKR

Peskytarian & Rapunzel cook next Monday at 7:30pm. #MKR

Those numbers SHOULD hurt. In addition to a thorough whipping with a bamboo stick. #MKR

Could be seeing 4 and 5s again tonight. Edge of seat stuff. #MKR

An ice cream sandwich with matcha bikkies, proper black sesame iceream and a dot of raspberry jam in the middle would have been a better "fusion" dish. And actually edible. #MKR

Black Sesame Ice Cream is supposed to be grey with black specks btw. #MKR

The winning move might have been to drop all the puddings on the floor first. #MKR

Yeah use the ice cream to totally dilute the custard flavour. #MKR

An apology? Look Peskytarian you'll be lucky to get a dessert at this point. #MKR

Someone needs to gift them a copy of this STAT. #MKR

It's true what Man-Col said - they don't understand the cuisines - you need to know the rules before you can break the rules. #MKR

That's bread and butter breadcrumbs ffs. #MKR

That is the whitest version of Black Sesame Ice Cream I've ever seen. Oh it's hit the floor anyway. #MKR

I love Black Sesame Ice Cream but bread pudding is arse. And baking fresh bread to make it - I can feel my Nana cursing them from beyond the earthly realm. #MKR

Yeah I was gonna let the lamb pass "because fusion"... since chicken or pork is more common and lamb only features in Indian or Middle Eastern dishes. But it is a popular Australian protein. #MKR

A small pickle of appropriate cuisine and some normal salad to relieve from the spicy sauce would have made more sense. #MKR

Putting forward the motion to ban Angus & Simon from every Asian grocery store in Adelaide. #MKR

Now this pickle salad - what KIND of pickling was it? Each Asian cuisine has their own take on it. #MKR

Honestly why wouldn't you marinate the lamb in a mix of something like coriander seed, tamarind, fish sauce and galangal at minimum. Fucking cumin. #MKR

This is Aussie pub + random Asian flavours hodge podge. #MKR

Cumin is a spice in Southern Muslim-Thai cooking - Nam Jim Jeaw is from Northern Thailand. WHY are they seasoning the lamb with cumin?? Pick a damn lane to some degree. #MKR

It's not fusion - it's just a Thai chilli dipping sauce with lamb cutlets and some pickled veggies mate. #MKR

Colin agrees with me - the duck should've been minced. #MKR

Knives and forks. For dumplings. #MKR

Look we can confirm at this point that Angus is good at cremation. #MKR

Some of those dumplings are flat out burnt 😑 #MKR

I do not wish to discuss the folding of the dumplings at this time. #MKR

Cooking the duck before putting it in the dumplings? Texture is wrong already. Dumplings usually have uncooked minced meat - the filling here is potentially dry. #MKR

Angus & Simon - Duck & Shiitake Dumplings, Orange & Anise Sauce - Lamb Cutlets, Nam Jim Jaew & Pickled Salad - Bread & Butter Pudding, Black Sesame Ice cream #MKR

Seems unwise to talk up a big game when you didn't make it through to the next stage in the first round... #MKR

#melbourne #photography

The other two teams will need to serve up turds on a plate to get worse. #MKR

They sure did talk but they could not walk . #MKR

You can't reheat beurre blanc sauce but you can use the leftovers as a compound butter, or add it to t purée.

Could be seeing some 4s and 5s? #MKR

#MKR

Well that pastry is borked. Why not just shove it into the tin? Because that pastry will shrink and look distorted. #MKR

Barramundi | Zucchini & Parsley Purée | Beans #food #foodporn #barramundi

At least at a Mexican restaurant they'd know how to say "tortilla". #MKR

Colin has you questioning your ability? #MKR

They just left the tuna naked? Suspect that's a dish they've eaten but never prepared before. #MKR
