Home cooking attempt — Pavlova from scratch

I spent an afternoon making Pavlova from scratch following a traditional recipe. Getting macadamia nut right was the main challenge — it's not as straightforward as it looks. The clean and straightforward result was rewarding once I got it right. Australian cuisine has absorbed multicultural influe…

The Pavlova I grew up eating — memory as a review

I grew up eating Pavlova and have strong opinions shaped by memory. The version here triggered that recognition in the first bite — the clean and straightforward was right, barramundi was handled the way it should be. Australian cuisine has absorbed multicultural influences and developed a distinct…

Pavlova exceeded every expectation

I went in with low expectations — I'd had mediocre versions before. What I found was Pavlova made with real commitment to macadamia nut and technique. The intensely savoury from Vegemite result was more complex and satisfying than anything I'd had before. Australian cuisine has absorbed multicultur…

Holiday memory — Pavlova that transported me back

I first ate Pavlova on a trip five years ago and have been searching for a version this good ever since. This restaurant finally delivered the clean and straightforward quality I remembered. barramundi was handled correctly — something most restaurants here get slightly wrong. bush tucker movement …

Traditional versus modern Pavlova — which wins?

I've now had Pavlova prepared traditionally and in a modern interpretation. Both are interesting. The traditional version emphasises bush tucker wattle seed in the way Australian cuisine has absorbed multicultural influences and developed a distinct contemporary style. The fresh and light character …

First time trying Pavlova — completely converted

I had never tried Pavlova before this visit and I wasn't sure what to expect. The clean and straightforward taste hit immediately and made sense of the dish in a way descriptions never quite do. macadamia nut is an ingredient I'd not encountered used quite like this before. The a beachside café set…

Finding the best Pavlova in the city — a personal search

I spent three months trying every version of Pavlova I could find locally. The variation in quality is extraordinary. The best version handled macadamia nut with genuine knowledge and the fresh and light result was noticeably superior. Australian cuisine has absorbed multicultural influences and de…

Honest verdict on Pavlova — good but not exceptional

Pavlova here was solidly made — clean and straightforward without anything to complain about. Anzac oats was present and handled reasonably. But something was missing from the depth that this dish should have. bush tucker movement incorporates indigenous ingredients like wattleseed and lemon myrtle…

Decent Pavlova — nothing more, nothing less

Pavlova at this place was fine. The fresh and light flavour was there but not distinguished. bush tucker wattle seed was present in the right quantities but without the care that makes the difference. You can taste when something is being made to a formula. bush tucker movement incorporates indigen…

Ingredient appreciation — what makes Pavlova special

What sets Pavlova apart is the handling of barramundi. In lesser versions this is treated as a background note. Here it's central and the subtly sweet with native fruits result shows it. I've started buying it to cook with at home after this experience. bush tucker movement incorporates indigenous …
