After the huge popularity of Rohan Anderson's slow-food inspired Guest Blog a few weeks back, we're back in foodie territory with the clever team from Island Menu!
Island Menu is another brilliant Australian food blog definitely worth bookmarking, this time based in Tasmania! It's a collaboration between Sam Shelley and Catherine Miller - Catherine also writes the very lovely blog Little Glowing Lights (and you've seen her gorgeous Hobart home here! ), whilst Sam runs his own photography and graphic design business. This creative pair joined forces earlier this year to create Island Menu - a gorgeous blog full of food photography and irresistible recipes based on the local produce of Tasmania. Seriously stunning stuff!
We're very lucky to have Sam and Catherine join us the Guest Blog all this week, sharing some of their favourite recipes using seasonal Tassie produce - yummmmmm.
