Food commentator Lucinda Bennett brings a fresh batch of edible knowledge each week, answering your questions on everything from cheap eats to fancy fare and all the meals in between.
It's every otaku's wet dream this week. Delaney's back from a swift trip to Japan and ready to make our mouths water with talk of ramen, yakitori, beef katsu, and a little town dedicated to the humble apple pie.
Things get a little fruity in the studio as we enter the ever-divisive feijoa season. Some love it, some hate it, and Delaney, bless her, is forever caught in the middle. Join us for more on what some are calling the Israel Folau of the fruit world. Things won't get too sour, we promise.
We're talking subs today, baby! Well, sandwiches. Your classic two slices of bread with the good stuff in between. None of that open sandwich bullshit. But where in Auckland can you cop a decent sammie, you ask? Fear no more, for Delaney's got alllll the answers.
How was _your_ Valentine's Day, hmm? Delaney ate chips on the floor, Mike spent it in A&E and Sarah cancelled it. Cool world. Also feat. the disappearing B.Y.O. restaurant.
Delaney went and saw Nigella speak at the Writers' Festival, and while there are many other pressing food topics to be covered this week, let's be honest... it's Nigella. Tell us _everything_.
Got any 'drinkables'? Apparently cold coffee is the buzz across Asia, while creamed corn seems to be the buzz across the studio. The mighty creamed corn fritter for Delaney, the sturdy cheese + corn toastie for Sarah, and for Mike? Erm... just a bowl of it, thanks.
Mike doesn't eat red meat, but that's not going to get in the way of a good American BBQ hootenanny. Also featuring: micheladas; British Marmite; and the return of sourdough toast.
As prophecised, Mike _did_ eat a whole Christmas cake over the holiday break. Two, in fact. (Delaney's fare was far more varied.) But what about the now? Stonefruit still reign, eggplants are a-plenty, and Delaney makes her case for mass mango inclusion.
Your last feast of the year! In which Sarah disappoints your segment host regarding stonefruit and it is proven, once again, that patience is a virtue that Delaney possesses in spades.
