In 35 years of cooking professionally I’ve been blessed to have worked with some magnificent ingredients, but this freshly caught Yellow Fin Tuna has got to be at the top of my list. It’s going to be a honour to break the beauty down and do justice to every last morsel. @azuraretreats #timeofyourlife #lovemyjob #tuna #fireandsmoke #sashimi #ceviche #seared #smoked #cured (at Azura) https://www.instagram.com/p/CkBE1YZqVTj/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Today would have been Ed’s 84th birthday, it will be the first without him, plus Fathers Day to follow on Sunday. I still feel his presence & his voice in my head whenever I do anything questionable. But I miss the banter, the support, the dodgy jokes….the man. #edmundo (at Hout Bay, Western Cape, South Africa) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ce5_EupKKTv/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
