Hi, I’m Matt, and I like food.

I’m a food lover, coffee drinker, cookbook hoarder, photographer, wannabe writer, IT bloke, dad, and beer enthusiast (read: I like beer).

I believe simple food doesn’t have to be boring. It’s about making the most of what you’ve got and building flavour with good ingredients, proper seasoning, and a few smart ideas. Don’t be afraid of salt—but remember, herbs and spices are your mates too.

Midweek meals don’t have to be a drag. Live a little.

I want to inspire you to get in the kitchen and cook something tasty. Every recipe here is doable—no chef training needed. Just have a crack… and if there’s a spare seat at the table, I’ll bring the beer.
