About
My name is Trish and I am a freelance food writer and cook. I have written for SMH’s Good Living, Eat and Drinks Sydney and The Foodies Guide. I recently found out I am gluten intolerant and now try to experiment with such recipes, although I still love to cook for friends and family, classic wheat full goodies.
Although I am about to finish a Masters of Architecture my passion is and always be food. In the next year I hope to undertake a baking course to learn more about pastry and also become more fluent in Spanish. I have been immersing myself in South American cuisines recently which is so interesting as their ingredients and techniques are so different to a lot of western cuisines. As I have learnt the basics of Greek, Italian, Spanish and French my next challenge is Asian, which is a big challenge. If you know me personally you will know that it is not my favourite region and I never really choose to go and dine in such restaurants, but as a foodie I need to appreciate certain techniques and ingredients that they include so I can learn more and develop as a cook.
In June this year (2011) my original website was deleted because of back of house technicalities with my server providers. It was a horrible time and I did loose a lot, so this new very basic and not so pretty website is a work in progress.
Thank you for supporting forque!
This is a serious good work in progress. I love it! I would follow each of your new tries of recipes.

Thank you Amanda, it makes me happy that people like it since my original site which I loved got deleted last June and I lost everything, so slowly building it all back up again.
Pleas visit again!

Wonderful site/resource! I am reverting back to my roots and want to learn everything I can about my Greek heritage. I loved reading your stories and look forward to trying the recipes. Thanks for including such great pictures for newbies like me
What area/village did your family come from?

Hi Stacy. I’m glad you like my site, I have a lot more of my families recipes to document, but it is so important to capture them. My Mum’s family is from Brotheromos in Cyprus and my Dad is from a small town near Sitia in Crete. What about you?
