Anthony Huckstep, a renowned Australian food critic and restaurant reviewer, did a little article on us in the May edition of Delicious, called "Different Strokes". We met him at last year's Truffle Kerfuffle when we got invited by the chefs to have dinner in the "moshpit" on the Friday night. Duncan Welgemoed from Africola in Adelaide used our funky pumpkins for a spectacular dish. We had a fantastic time. Thanks Huckster!
