Time for Bill Granger...

Here at The Alasia we are huge fans of anything Australian - including our lovely Aussie Manager & co-owner, Michaela.

Michaela introduced us to the very delicious (in looks and in menu)Australian celebrity chef and restaurateur Bill Granger. Have a look at his restaurant web site...quite simply BILLS.

Bill has been dubbed the Aussie answer to Jamie Oliver, however Bill stands alone in his own right as a chef who loves to invite his fans and viewers into his home to enjoy simply good food, fresh and full of colour.

You will find a copy of "Bill's Open Kitchen" at The Alasia and you will catch both Michaela and head chef James Perry flicking through the pages regularly. We are sure neither will mind if you casually come for coffee and a read!

The creativity behind his food is paramount to his study of fine art in his youth. He is inspired by light, open space - and this comes through in his cooking and choice of ingredients.

The Alasia creme brulee is inspired by Bill, and our recent addition of Corn Cakes to our evening menu, is also Bill-inspired.

Bill's latest book "Feed Me Now" is about functional food for the family to sit down and enjoy at the table.
