Ministry of Food - LT

Changing the world - one meal at a time. Jamie Oliver

Currently airing on Channel Ten is his lastest revolution called the Ministry of Food. In fact, in one episode I was completely rapt by the potential change his cause could promote. Beginning with a small county called Rotheram, he plans to change a few select citizens of a quiet British town, and through the word of mouth, create a hype and buzz about healthy eating and recipe swapping.

It's just his crazy ideas and passion to promote better eating which makes this guy so great. Just look down his resume, you have restaurant 15 which he even opened in Melbourne to get homeless people into cooking and create a subculture of food.


And then there's School Dinners. A vastly epic feat to change the way UK people eat, starting from the roots.


Very Inspiring.

Food Tetris - LT

Your eyes deceive you not, for that is indeed french toast. Notice how it stacks nicely into the curved lid. Complemented well with sweet delicious fruit. The perfect dessert bento.
Observe the double bento manouvre. Difficulty 2.5. The proportion of meat and vegetables is just right, garnished with carrot stars. Exquisite.
Definitely a tetris pro. Cupcake holder to separate colesale, genius. Who would have thought to use monkey toothpick to attack those italian sausages, pan fried to perfection.

Bento PRO.

Another late night brainstorm - LT

The joys of thinking about how to put a twist to traditional food items. My inspiration comes from this seeminly innocent and boring photo exhibited below:

You may be asking yourself, what is this? Well, depicted is what looks to be a simple sushi, and sushi with items you can easily and cheaply get from within the home. Whoever this guy or girl was, mega props for the inspiration. It's SPAM, man. That's so genius, my mind is beyond itself.
So how to take it to the next level? Refer below.

Here is a crap photo of a tamago sushi. Now put 2 and 2 together. You get awesome. And now, ladies and gentlemen, for all of you who have 3 simple ingredients, a kitchen and a craving in mind, I present to you, "Sushi de Lawrence".

Recipe:

One tin spam, sushi seaweed, rice, sushi vinegar/sake

1. slice spam into tamago rectangular fingers

2. pan fry that shiz to perfection

3. make the sushi rice to however its supposed to be made.

3a (optional) flavour the rice with those dried additives

4. cut out strips of seaweed and wrap it up

5. nom it good.

Please tell me how it is, a good cook loves feedback. You heard it here first.

How do you say no? - LT

As of late, I have had a craving for burgwers. Yes. By that, I mean burgers.

Seriously, that's just naughty to let the sauce drip all over, so tempting and delicious. And the cheese, o man...the chesse. Chips could have done better but gosh, there is no resistance like mouthwatering. It just makes you want it more.

For those that are real men: If this burger was a guy, the monkey in your head would say:

But in the special case of DK, should the world be fluffy green meadows, and puppies running amock, you would race him, just to get your dirty hands on this burger baby. get it while its hot before these puppies do.

man's greatest creations - KY

the same race that tried to build the tower of Babel, has built another tower.
a tower of obesity.
heralding from my homestate of California....
i give you the 100x100

how does this baby work? well in in-n-out, a SoCal fastfood chain store you can order their icon "double double" that's two beef patty, two pieces of cheese and no veggies between hamburger bread. previously it had become urban legend that customers started order 5x5s, and 10x10s, ie 10 beef patties 10 pieces of cheese. Well i think we found the alpha male.
this tower carries a meager 19490 calories. and costs $97.88US


the dude took 2 hours to eat it. yeah that's right. the dude ate it....

if that's not enough heart attack in a meal for you.. i mean 19000 calories.. welll in-n-out's other specialty is animal fries (pictured above).. and you wonder why they call it in n out.. looks like vomit on fries.. but rest assured.. the dish is a thing of beauty. even if you're watching your weight, on a diet, or one of the olsen twins - you have to try these two of man's greatest creations out at least once in your live. Ok, maybe not a 100x100, but a double double at least. In the end, it's just gonna go in and out.

The World's Most Innovative Food Item - LT

Dumplings.

Find it on the second level of world square. Well worth the wait. Even if it was rated top 10 in the world by New York Times in 1993.

Salivating Cravings - LT

Golden Burger - LT

The burger's made of Kobe beef, topped with gold flakes, black truffles, a thick slab of seared foie gras and aged Gruyere cheese.

Yes, your eyes do not deceive you, this Wall St Burger joint has ignored the credit crunch, opting for the choice of gold flecks to garnish this USD175 plate of justice. Being the busy Wall St Salaryman, one craves for the french delicacies in a celebrated old cheesy American favourite, complementing a tender juicy piece of Japanese succulent delight.

Cash means nothing. Indulgence - everything.
