But my friend, today this is not the case. With eggplant’s international status you are bound to find some in most parts of the earth even with the temporary shortage currently running in North America. In Chinese cuisine, my favorite eggplant dishes are either stewed or braised usually in some kind of sauce. Despite my love for eggplant I had always avoided cooking it at home. In a recent experiment, I produced the restaurant like eggplant dish without deep frying. I braised the eggplant with sweet bean paste sauce.

chez pim A Man Obsessed with Food, Drink, and Everything Inbetween - MattBites.com AA Gill, NZ Roast day and five Auckland food discoveries English food critic AA Gill was in town recently – while I was in California actually, enjoying a meal at the French Laundry, which I’ll tell you all about in a future issue of Metro. So there I was, feeling quite smug about getting my very, very expensive lunch paid for by the magazine, when little did I know my fellow food writers at said magazine were feeling doubley smug in my absence – eating three courses at Clooney with the world’s most famous, second funniest restaurant reviewer. So what was he like? Anyway, there’s no need for you to fear that this blog of mine will just become an online cheerleader for Metro magazine. No, I do have another reason for bringing up AA Gill, and it’s directly related to blogging. It was a disappointing story to break just the day before I attended the launch of Selak’s New Zealand Roast Day. In other news, here are five Auckland food discoveries I’ve made recently: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Love to know what you think of that AA Gill story in Metro too.
