Connecting at the Table
A culinary initiative that transcends traditional dining.
Lyndey Milan redefines the table as a place of shared stories and memories, not just meals. This vision sees food as a powerful catalyst for connection, breaking cultural and social barriers and bringing people closer in the most universal way – through shared meals.
Lyndey’s approach nourishes not just the body but the mind and soul, creating an enriching dining experience that goes beyond culinary delights. Her philosophy celebrates diversity, with each dish representing a tapestry of global flavours and traditions, inviting guests to embark on a cultural and sensory journey. This initiative is also about building communities, as Lyndey emphasises local produce and regional cuisines, nurturing a sense of pride and connection while supporting local artisans and preserving culinary heritage.
“Connecting At The Table” is Lyndey’s vision for the future of dining, where traditional practices meet modern trends, appealing to contemporary tastes while remaining authentic and soulful.
This concept is not just about enjoying food; it’s about understanding the stories behind each dish and the people who share the meal. Join us in this unique culinary adventure, where every meal is a discovery, and every gathering is a cherished memory in the making. With Lyndey Milan, dining is an exploration of the world and ourselves, a celebration of connection and culture at every table.

What a lovely human being Antonio Carluccio was. So warm, engaging and Italian.
I was lucky enough to meet him on many occasions, including here when he was representing Mutti tomato products in Australia.
I had previously had fun with him at Tasting Australia in Adelaide way back in the early 2000s, but I was lucky enough to spend time with him and his partner at a small private dinner in London before he sadly passed away in late 2017. Never forgotten.
Happy St Patrick`s Day everyone🍀. I have a long love of #StPatricksDay, especially having done a TV series there - Lyndey Milan’s Taste of Ireland.
With inclement weather (well it was Ireland - but rain is an ingredient in their superb produce) I cooked this Luxe `Irish Stew` in an old barn on The Burren in the northernmost part of County Clare where goats run wild. It is one of only six national parks in the country.

Try these roasted brussels sprouts to convert non-fans to their deliciousness - crisp and golden on the outside and tender on the inside.
Do you prepare them differently? If so, let me know in the comments.

It’s so important how you store your food at home, to ensure it stays fresher for longer. How do you store your eggs, apples, pears and bananas?

Make this Nectarine and Macadamia Tart to impress at your next dinner party. I love summer fruits, and nectarines and macadamias make good friends. Based on a frangipane tart, macadamias in the pastry and the filling take it to a new level.
Comment NECTARINE below and I’ll send you the full recipe to make it at home.

Nicole Kidman is proud to be Australian. She and husband Keith Urban visited the @sydneyroyal_eastershow several years ago privately, staying under the radar, but she was very interested when my colleague @jabfood invited her into back of house of the demonstration kitchen at the Easter Show. She was fascinated to learn about Australian Extra Virgin Olive oil.
Tune in at 8:50 am to watch us cook up a storm for @curecancerau on @sunriseon7 @cookingon7 with @annapolyviou
