About Me
Established in 2005, The Foodologist is dedicated to providing reviews, recipes and information of gastronomic interest to readers all over the world.
An obsessed foodie who’s been involved one way or another all my life. After finishing a number of degrees in Physiology including a PhD from the University of Oxford, I came back to my home town of Adelaide to work for my family business which my father started over 30 years ago.
During that time I have worked in all areas of the food business and in 2006 became Managing Director of the company.
I have completed the Le Cordon Bleu MA in Gastronomy at the University of Adelaide for which I was awarded scholarships from the Australian Association of Food Professionals and the Culinary Trust (part of the IACP) and in 2012 finished an MBA at the University of Adelaide.
In 2008, I was awarded the South Australian Premier’s Food Awards Young Leader Award.
Yours in food,

Dear Doc G
I am emailing you about the released of the movie – Food Inc ! It is screening from June 24th 2010. See http://www.foodincmovie.com
Filmmaker Robert Kenner lifts the veil on the American food industry, exposing the highly mechanized underbelly that has been hidden from the consumer with the consent of the government. Exploring how the nation’s food supply is controlled by a handful of corporations that put profit ahead of consumer health, the livelihood of the American farmer, the safety of workers and the environment, interviewees such as Eric Schlosser (Fast Food Nation), Michael Pollan (The Omnivore’s Dilemma, In Defense of Food: An Eater’s Manifesto) and forward-thinking social entrepreneurs reveal surprising – and often shocking – truths about what we eat, how it’s produced and where the planet is going from here.
For interested people, there are discounted rates for groups, so please email me as per above if you or your members, want any further information or to make a booking.
Kind Regards

Hi Michelle,
Thankyou for letting me know about Food Inc! I soooo want to see it as I’ve heard a lot about it. I hear it’s pretty much Omnivore’s Dilemma (Michael Pollan) as a movie.
Will be there to see it for sure. See you soon.

Hey I am looking for a good restaurant to go out to for my birthday, in Adelaide of course any ideas? The requirements would be that of a traditional student- good and cheap

Hello –
I am about to try your cupcake recipe for my son’s birthday.
I am a truly tragic baker so I have high hopes that they will be easy and elicit the oohs and aahs you have been able to procure.
I have an admittedly daft question. Your recipe says to put the filled cupcake cases onto a baking tray. Is this instead of a cupcake tin? Does it matter?
By way of background, I too am an expat – born in California, spent 1/2 my life in NYC and now live in Tasmania… It’s different.
Thank you so much!!

Best of luck. I’m V. happy with the icing and the recipe is easy to do. I think there might be better recipes out there and will report on them when I find them! – Regards
another good movie would be that one here!
