@pakman Yeah, entry level would perhaps have been a better description. And yes it is pretty good. Very crisp but still with that underlying taste of stone fruit (not too peachy thank God). Not as fat and buttery as some Burgundy can be. Goes well with all fish and seafood and is very easy to drink on its own.
An essential trait for me, I mean, I can't always be eating!

I didn't know that this was a thing:
*LegaSea is celebrating May 28th as National Kahawai Day, in recognition of the community coming together in the early 2000s to save 'the people's fish'.
The 4-year Kahawai Legal Challenge was the first time recreational fishers had taken the Minister of Fisheries to court since the Quota Management System was introduced 20 years prior. It proved the public is able to influence how our fish stocks are managed, to ensure more sustainable and abundant fish populations for the future.
Kahawai was often the first fish a child would catch, and people used the rich-tasting kahawai to feed their family and would marvel at the sight of their large schooling behaviour from the shore. Whether you were out on the water or fishing off the rocks, if you threw out a spinner the chances were high that you'd catch a kahawai. *
I think that I might make a smoked kahawai fish pie today. Rick Stein's recipe is just beautiful. Love the egg in it and my ducks are over producing. Dairy farmers will also be pleased.

Aw yum! Love a fish pie. I used a Hugh Fearnley Whittingsall recipe once where he infuses the milk with prawn heads as well as smoked fish, then adds the bodies into the pie itself for extra interest

The eggs make it. And some peas
Peas are always my side dish.
It is one of the great comfort foods. Creamy fishy deliciousness

I've previously argued that meat-eaters concerned about animal welfare should try to eat beef, not chicken. The logic goes: the average cow is very big and makes 405,000 calories of beef. The average chicken is very small and makes 3000 calories of chicken. If you eat the US average of 250,000 calories of meat per year, you can either eat 0.5 cows, or 80 chickens. If each animal raised for meat experiences some suffering, eating chicken exposes 160x more animals to that suffering than eating beef.

Forgivable as long as it isn't South African and thinks it's funny.

Queen's Bday long weekend here in most States.
New favourite cut of meat, I've had it before but I have to say, I nailed this reverse sear.
Cape Grim rump cap/picanha. Dry brined for about 8 hours, on the Webber Q at 220-240F for about 1.75 hours. Took it off the the indirect set up when it hit an internal temp of 120 F. Got the Q up to 400 C and then seared the shit out of it.
Wife did an awesome 3 cheese potato bake and a good Barossa shiraz, heaven!
