#scrambledkang: Egg(s) and Asparagus

======== we’re all on IG these days, and my blog has really become a bit of a digital museum. I do treat it like one as well, and upload my favourite memories here. Mainly because this is my own url and I get to keep…

ScrambledKang – Native lobster season 2018

#scrambledkang: A Spring fantasy

If you follow me on IG, then you’ll know of my weekend exploits at the stoves at home as #scrambledkang. As you know I only really write about restaurants on this blog, so this will be a one-off post. I have been toying with the…
