#FoodReview – Lunch @ ribs and rumps, Brisbane
Wow the year 2015 flew by so fast, before we could say Jack, it was already 31st December, 2015.
2015 was no doubt a challenging year for me, my family and business and to a larger extent the whole world. Despite all odds, it is quite ok to be thankful and hopeful for a better 2016.
To round up the year, we decided to have a good lunch since we won’t be attending any of the fireworks in the city of Brisbane to welcome 2016.
Ribs and rumps Fortitude Valley, a bar & grill restaurant was a good choice for us since we had steak in mind.
We arrived at the restaurant a little early before opening time but the place was all set and the friendly staff easily got a us a good spot despite our not having a reservation (don’t mind me, I never remember to make reservations, I once got in trouble for that on mother’s day).
We ordered mocktail (cocktail without alcohol) for drinks.
It was cool and it had Lemon, Lime mint and some other stuff I can’t remember.
Mocktail Cost – $8.00
We got the grilled banana prawns as entree which was on the ‘to share’ part of the menu, oh my God this was finger licking. You should try it whenever you go to ribs and rumps.
Grilled Banana Prawns (buttreflied then grilled with garlic and herb butter) Cost – $17.50
Then came the main meal which I was looking forward to. It came quite fast beyond my expectation, I am still trying to work out the kind of magic the chef did to make our meals that quick.
I ordered the 250g PINNACLE RUMP w/ SLOW-ROASTED LAMB RIBS with herb and garlic potatoes.
The lamb ribs was my favourite on this dish, It was succulent, tender and well cooked. It was literally melting in my mouth.
We also had Caesar salad to go with it. That was yum.
This was a perfect way to round up 2015 and welcome 2016.
I recommend this restaurant for anyone who love to have a decent dining experience in #Brisbane.
The staff are friendly, hard working and full of smiles.
I scored this meal a 7 out of 10.

Breakfast shouldn’t be boring
I had oats and boiled eggs for breakfast but my oats was loaded with some healthy stuff giving it a kind of princely swag.
Let me show you how I made it.
First I added 3 cups of water to a cooking pot and placed on the cook top to boil.
Then I added two tablespoons of my premixed seeds comprising of chia, flax, sunflower seeds and cacao nibs.
I allowed this to boil for 5 minutes and I added 1 cup of oats which is enough for two.
I stirred the oats and the existing seeds properly, then covered and left to cook for another 5 minutes.
I added 3 spoons of honey and stirred to mix properly.
I added 1/2 cup of blueberries and voila, breakfast was ready.
It was quite yummy.
Peppered Gizzards #SummerIdeas
It is summer here in Australia, the default thing here on a weekend or if you are on holiday like me is to throw a steak on the barbecue but I chose to do something different today.
I got some packs of giblets from Coles (grocery store) while shopping for Christmas and I thought why not some peppered gizzards this afternoon. The good thing about gizzards is they are very cheap, easy and quick to cook.
So let me show you how to make a sumptuous, delicious and finger licking peppered gizzards.
Ingredients
Gizzards (Giblets)
Tomatoes
Onion
Chili Pepper
Garlic
Olive or Canola oil.
Spices and herbs.
How to make your peppered gizzard.
First thing first, make sure you wash your gizzards thoroughly in water at least twice.
Wash the tomatoes, onions and garlic too.
Blend the tomatoes and onions briefly to make sure they don’t end up smooth.
Pour the washed gizzards into a cooking pot, add water, salt and spices to taste and cook for at least 30 minutes.
Dice the remaining onion, chili and garlic.
Once the gizzard is cooked, Sieve out the stock and keep meat separate in a bowl.
Pour some oil into the frying pan.
Allow to heat for about 3 minutes.
Add the diced onion and allow to heat for 2 minutes.
Add the garlic into the heated onion and oil.
Stir and allow to cook for about 3 minutes.
Add the blended tomatoes into the heated oil, onion and garlic mix, one cooking spoon at a time to avoid hot oil splashing into your face, body or the cooking stove.
Allow the mixture to cook for minimum of 5 minutes or until the sauce is thick.
Add the gizzards to the sauce, stir continuously to ensure a thorough mix and allow to cook for 5 minutes.
It is ready, you can have it with some cold drinks to counter the effect of the chili or eat with vegetables, salads or rice.
