Dear Readers,
last year the video created by Fabrizio Evans at #Group42 exclusively for Bohemian Rhapsody Club and Magazine from Melbourne International Coffee Expo, one of the largest and most visited exhibitions in Victoria , won the first place among all created in 2017. The exhibition management and marketing teams used Fab's video promoting the 2018 #MICE exhibition this year and placed on the first page of their main page. I am very proud and I wanted to take this opportunity to thank Fab again (many times and never enough for what he has been doing for us in the last years!) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bXZIgRrY1-I
This year I would like to appreciate the hardest work Bryanna Reynolds ( ex Channel 7 Melbourne and now Channel 9 Australia ) has been doing for us for the last 6 years. Her latest video creations are so spectacular - I run out of words and can not find enough to thank her! Bri's coffee video this year is different and simply amazing with its idea! Love your work Bryanna Reynolds Multimedia Journalist & Producer at Reynolds Sister Productions !!! It is that wow-factor that is always present in your art works!

my personal counselor and good old friend takes me for breakfast today to a very special place Dalle Stella Cafe & Restaurant. 
What is there to note : 
~ we have bags from the same place - nevertheless hers is winter and mine is summer , 
~ the cafe is full of butterflies, 
~ we get a personalised service from the owner. The Shanghai girl who apparently loves my friend very much, makes sure we are served in special high tea cups , 
~ I got a T2 Tea present , 
~ we might get to run a media coverage for this beautiful gem.
That must be enough ... The coffees are superb so are the croissants at Dalle Stella, Carnegie

we walked inside hiding from the weather determined to buy Alex today's birthday present and we did but it looked like I loved it more than him :(

#Yallateef! book challenge
I cooked as promised 6 dishes from @MarwaMakool 's book . Marwa is the owner of famous and super successful Oasis AU Bakery North Road. Marwa kindly gifted me her signed cook book and I promised to run this challenge and buy the products from her shop to try their quality
some comments
~ very grateful to Marwa for her trust
~ I have to admit that Marwa knows her spices and ingredients very very well. I respect her highly for that. Most of the recipes I have chosen were very easy to follow and the tasty dishes are very easy to follow.
~ the recipes contain the spices and ingredients I have never tried in my life. They are delicious. Some of the spices are available at Oasis shop to purchase, they are not the cheapest but they are very fresh and very handy plus you will use them for a long time in your dishes.
~ do not expect a certain taste from the dish you cook. You will get something absolutely fabulous no matter what you predict. The taste is delish and unpredictable. If you believe "oh, I put way too much of those very hot spices", you might be wrong as the spices in combination with certain products and in mixture will work perfectly well and will pleasantly surprise you.
~ the vegetarian dishes are amazing! My best reward: my son asking me in two days after he tried the food at my place and after his "takeaways": mum, these dishes you cooked were sensational! can you please cook more for me to try and can I please borrow this book from you"
~ all the dishes I have chosen were delicious, but best out of all: pumpkin pancakes EJJEH which I gave 10 out of 10. second place: walnut and pomegranate salad because of its unusual seasoning and nuts of course, I also loved buckwheat and rice dishes plus the desert and the superb Lebanese coffee recommended to me by Eddie, the owner and the husband of Marwa was absolutely fabulous!
~ I had lots of comments and compliments about the decoration of my dishes - thank you everyone who did it - I got inspired by your comments and warm messages!
~ happy cooking guys and girls creating at art and love inside your plates!
yours sincerely

And the chai latte here is so rich in flavour it's almost orgasmic if not to say cinnamonic experience ! Thank you Rouben and Calvin ! One more thank you and will run out of thank yous for the day !!!! I am speechless with the men's generosity and care here...

on our Lovely Taste pages: http://bohemianrhapsodyclub.weebly.com/lovely-taste-66.html
best hot drink of the month:
sencha tea at Shingle Inn Southland
best desert: Movenpick Melbourne Central / Mövenpick Ice Cream
best lunch: Montsalvat restaurant : The Boulevard Restaurant
best dinner: Kin Vietnamese Restaurant Prahran

i guess this is not that time of the year to mention "ice cream" of any kind (or anything to do with "ice") but the flavours at Mövenpick Ice Cream / Movenpick Melbourne Central are so unbelievably divine it is hard not to say "Si" - that's sampling I guess - and it is on the go:
BTW, your Entertainment Book has two vouchers for the triple and double baskets and they will be half price - just check the pages and love your ice cream too no matter what the season is: https://www.entertainmentbook.com.au/orderbooks/182v887
on the pictures below - sorry , we partially destroyed ours and there is also a nice watercolor picture of the puppy from the talented girl, the artist who was sitting next to us and who was very keen to share her album:

i thought this would be just the right time to share with you our best "eating-out" choices for the last month:
http://bohemianrhapsodyclub.weebly.com/lovely-taste.html

LUNCH: Sushi Sushi / Sushi Sushi (in your Entertainment Book 2017-18) 
DINNER: YaSouv Greek Street Food at Glenferrie Road (in your Entertainment Book 2017-18) 
COFFEES: Market Lane Coffee Prahran
DESERT: LuxBite South Yarra

​I am also thanking Victoria Serdyuk for her kind support and purchasing the book through us this year again - thank you Vika! Hope you will enjoy your journey with this year beauty! 
https://www.entertainmentbook.com.au/orderbooks/182v887

i know this is not the right weather for such drinks but always the right season for the The Coffee Club (Australia) / #TheCoffeeClubParkmore - after the weekly fruit shopping.
​
you coffee is $6 for two with Entertainment Book voucher
https://www.entertainmentbook.com.au/orderbooks/182v887 and hope you are now totally convinced to buy yours too...

ok, I am finishing with my challenge on 6 recipes: i have to go through the last three meals from the 
Lonely Planet / #LonelyPlanetFood 's new book called #TheWorldsBestSuperfoods / #HealthBoostingRecipesFromAroundTheWorld: middle eastern potato salad, pickled herring and matcha green tea

1. sweet potatoes unpeeled, pink himalayan salt, sunflower oil (olive extra virgin used), parsley ( fresh coriander used), pomegranate seeds for decor; dressing: goat yogurt (cow used), cumin (cumin used), cinnamon (nutmeg used) - as you see I made a variety that was also absolutely amazing in taste! but I guess goat yogurt should be even better...

2. herring, swedish vinegar (one white used - i had no idea what swedish vinegar is - i guess no swedish, no vinegar), water, white vinegar (i already used), white sugar (very brown used), peppercorns (yes), juniper berries, cloves, bay leaf (from the next door tree that grows way too much using our own sun - i claim it's ours partially then), red onion (he was spanish), horseradish (he was french), finely cut carrots, dill to garnish (coriander used)

3. matcha green tea that (made myself into powder) and boiled water (I guess boiled water is always used for tea - there is no tea without water as there is no coffee without water ha! but there is tea without coffee)

herring took most of the time as it asked me to marinade her. i also tried to include as many of our own garden greens as possible (even lemons for garnish) and use organic and healthy ingredients as well as trying to slightly change the recipe without changing the overall flavour theme. i hope our readers will love the book that contains more than you cook in one year recipes, a pre-word by famous Natasha Corrett Honestly Healthy, symbols for energy, immune system, digestion, longevity and heart <3 with some fabulous photos, comments, origins of the dishes, tasting notes and step by step methods of preparation.

​Bohemian Rhapsody Club and Online Magazine expressing its special thanks to the #LonelyPlanetFood publishing house for providing the book for review - and thanking personally #AdamBennett at Lonely Planet Melbourne / Manager, Media & Communications (Asia-Pacific) . please stay tuned for more information.

What is the Knafeh Nabulseyeh?
Nablus is one of the Palestinian cities that sustained elite classes, fostering the development of culture of 'high cuisine" such as that of Damascus or Baghadad. The city is home to a number of food products well known throughout the Levant, the Middle East.
Kanafeh is the most famed Nabulsi sweet. Originating in Nablus during the 15th century bu 1575 its recipe was exported throughout the Ottoman Empire which controlled Palestine at the time. Kanafeh is made of several fine shreds of pastry noodles with honey-sweetened cheese in the centre and sprinkled with crushed pistachios on top. Though it is now made throughout the Middle East to the present day knafeh Nabulsi enjoys continued fame partly die to its use of a white-brine cheese called jibneh Nabulsi
After years of hard work and dedication and being endlessly perfected we are proud to finally present Knafeh Nablseyeh for the first time ever in Australia the exact same way it has been produced since centuries ago.
Come and taste the history...
