I've been a Bob Blumer fan ever since I saw him on telly; a crazy-haired cook driving around in his Toastermobile, cooking up the most amazing dishes for the most colourful characters. I first saw him in the flesh two years ago at a World Gourmet Summit dinner (where he made us churn our own butter), and I had the good fortune to meet him again on Saturday, this time around at the Starhub Hubalicious Food Festival.
I couldn't think of a better way to spend a Saturday evening – the wine was flowing, our table mates were nicely rowdy and amazing oyster shuckers (more on that later), and I got to bring my fellow fan girl with me. Oh yes, and we got to eat some pretty amazing food.

| In typical Bob style, we had to work for our first course. Oyster shucker, I am so not! |
 |
| Thank goodness for the friendly, experienced shuckers at our table! |
 |
| Credit's far from mine, but I'm not complaining! |
 |
| Lobster bisque |
 |
| Stinging nettle ravioli – tastes like spinach! |
 | |
| Dessert for mains. Salmon cupcake – salmon fishcake with a beet-coloured mash icing |
 |
| And breakfast for dessert. White chocolate "egg whites" with a passionfruit sorbet "yolk". |
 |
| In 2009, with Ken |
 |
| 2011, with Ceci. Why does it look like I'm the only one who aged??? |
