Signature Dishes – Press Release

Celebrating the best chefs in Australia with F&B Expert Michelle TCHEA

What is a chef’s signature dish? It’s the recipe that defines them – that tells the world about their taste, their flavour combination and their true passion. It’s the heart of every chef’s restaurant, their café and their home. It can come from their mother or grandmother, or come to them in the middle of the night. It’s their piece de resistance, their signature. In this book Michelle Tchea captures over 80 recipes from leading chefs, all over Australia. Here are the leading restaurateurs, and best selling cookbook authors, in one tantalizing volume. It includes Adam D’Slyva, Guy Grossi, Michael Moore, John McLeay, Tobie Puttock and more. From John McLeay’s Pork Belly with Apple Slaw and Chilli Caramel to Tobie Puttock’s Grilled Peaches with Caramelised Brioche, each chef explains how and why they were inspired to call this recipe their signature dish, and includes photographs for each one.
