Today’s Good Living has an article on the chickpea degustation I hosted with Somer Sivrioglu from Efendy. This is a screen shot from the Good Living iPad app, since I don’t have access to the newspaper itself. As you’ll find out by reading this article, Somer and I are preparing for an eggplant themed dinner in October – I’ll give you more details when I have them. I’m pretty happy with this article and I think the photo of my chickpea and walnut trifle looks great. It’s a wonderful dessert, if I may say so myself, so go and try it at Efendy – Somer’s added it to his menu.

It’s is a shame that I missed out.

Small world ya Fouad!

Congrats on the Good Living feature, Fouad. One for the grandkids. I would have loved to have attended but as luck would have it I was out of town that week. Looking forward to hearing about the upcoming eggplant feast.
I always have chickpeas in the cupboard but I rarely use them but it looks like I’ve been missing out all these years. I’ve been inspired enough to get my recipe book out.

[...] Around three months ago, I ran an event with Somer Sivrioglu, owner and head chef at Efendy, Balmain that brought to Sydney the chickpea dishes of Lebanon and Turkey. The event was a great success – we even got a full page write-up in The Sydney Morning Herlad’s Good Living. [...]

Fouad suggested that I come up with a Lebanese inspired dessert for the secret dinners. On such short notice I wasn’t able to come up with a dessert I was actually happy with, so we both agreed that we could serve a dessert that Fouad previously made for his chickpea dinner. [...]
