If you come to Australia, you have to check out South Australia. Hands down the best place for food and wine in the country. Thanks for link, Michael! The new book looks great.

Do you think you might be able to sneak in some foie gras? It's kind of banned over here. We can say it's a transplant for some poor Aussie drinker whose done his own liver in. I'll chill the Y'quem.

I know a couple of local hot chefs highly recommend The Elements and I look forward to reviewing it. You should come down on tour or for the Food Festival next year - I'll whizz an email to its creative director. Appologies again for my April 1 email cynacism...

You are my favorite food author. Elements of Cooking is a tour de force. I'm amazed at what I learn every time I pick it up. I'm not going through it page by page although I will at some point. But whenever I need a sage piece of advice I know it's there in those pages. Took your veal stock advice and... wow... a wise man you are. Can't wait to see what you do to follow up on Reach of a Chef. Congratulations and Fantastic! You are my favorite food author. Elements of Cooking is a tour de force.

(tho I've never hit anything else in the top 5 of whaddever magazine). The poached-in-olive-oil fish is riddiculously smooth... the toro lollipop thing I had is easily the most tasty teaspoon of *anything* I've ever ate. Literally made me weak in the knees. But if that isn't in the plan, you MUST go to BBQ King... freaking awesome Chinese BBQ...
