Antipasto - Food is passion and brings people together

Hi there


Are you feeling passionate or are we just friends?

I'm back !!!!!   After publishing a book about my local area of Mosman, (two years).   We.. lll .... Ok.... if you insist ...  -  "Mosman Meanders and foreshore flavours" -  walks around the Sydney foreshores, history, photographs by Christopher  and of course ...food. 
I know you live in your own beautiful part of the world and you have your own providores (new word for me, Italian for providers), but the putting together of the antipasto plate for Christmas, requires skill, research and passion. 
And yes, I know this blast of pre Xmas  recipes is not traditional fitinyourjeanscuisine  food, but it's time to bring out your guilt free  "inner gourmet -  embracing the Christmas Spirit".

Quattro Formaggi - one of our local providors in Raglan Road, Mosman,  has the mantra  "Food is passion and brings people together." 
Putting together an antipasto plate to serve with Christmas drinks is an easy matter when you have a fantastic variety of  cured meats, cheeses and accompaniments.
