Renowned Swiss/Australian

culinary book publishers:

Fritz Gubler & James Mussak

I must say, that in the last few months

I have never been so busy in my

culinary business life ever, having a

book launch with my culinary friend

chef and author Marx Canoy, of the

new “FOOD FEAST” a great Filipino cook

book. Followed by my own book launch

together with Margaret Fulton; the

“MENUS” book, (produced by Raquel

Muňoz, graphic artist). It was one of my

proudest moments in my culinary life.

Of course it was all done with music,

ample food and beverages, and best

of all: supported by our very generous

GREAT, GREAT SPONSORS.

At the TASTE of Sydney, I was with

publisher, David Lipman, BEER & BREWER

MAGAZINE. We were promoting his

great publication and my very own

“MENUS” book – (When Only the Best

Will Do!) ...and next to us, how very

convenient, our friend Glenn Carey,

with his Balmain Beer Brewing stand.

Equally busy we were at Master Chef

Live, Centennial Park, Sydney. Owner,

Matt Butcher, of “Smoke & Roast” and

myself were inundated with people who

where sampling/buying the various

roasted Smoked-Sea-Salts. In due

course, many culinary VIPs came to

chat with us; from celebrity TV/chefs...

to 100’s of our friends and colleagues!

Plus, one of my best experience was

at Ryde Catering College; a SALT

Masterclass presentation by book

author, Fritz Gubler, organised by HTN’s,

Michael Bennett and Suzi Brankovic.

Plus... I could not resist the invitation to

attend the ACCTA/TV/Movie Awards,

after-party - at the STAR CASINO,

meeting, drinking with Lachy Hulme,

(aka Kerry Packer) and talking with

Russell Crowe, mingling with top promi-

nent TV/Movie stars, and meeting with

the head chef of this amazing occasion.

Best of all... I was invited by culinary

magazine publisher, Mel Nathan of

“Food Companion International” to the

most exclusive “Executive Chefs Club”

in Australia. Meeting with culinary VIPs’,

like friends Paul Butler, National Press

Club-Canberra, F&B Mngr. catching

up with Neil Abrahams, ACF-ACT/NSW

President, and with Yanni Krytis, Lyndey

Milan and the “Goddess” herself;

Stephanie Alexander, at the FEVOO

Olive Oils tasting Masterclasses.
