Wine, Cider & Jungle Curry It could so easily be a civil war on the palate but how do you match the flavours and notes of European-style wine, cider and beer with the fiery pungency of a Thai curry, adorned with four types of chilli? Winemaker and supplier Neil Prentice and Executive Chef of Chin Chin, Benjamin Cooper put their heads together to make hot food and western drink combinations that work.

Huxtaburger 106 Smith St, Collingwood Ph: 9417 6328 That's lots of lips wrapped around a sweet, sesame-dotted Breadtop bun encasing a criminally juicy Moondarra wagyu patty as well as tomato, cheese, lettuce, pickles, mustard, tomato sauce and house-made mayo. They're small-ish but perfectly formed, so no shame in ordering two. Flippin' good... Read full review The Herald Sun - Weekend |

Cutting out eating could lengthen your lifespan, Wandering Palate study finds ... Prentice also discovered his Tajima Beef had ‘melt in your mouth’ fatty acids (Oleic and Stearic acid) identical to the Jamon, or Iberico Pigs, treasured for their dried meat and small-goods and has been experimenting with “Sobrasada” style sausages and air-dried salami...

Yowsers @moondarra Conception PNoir 2010 is fantastic. Wild, off-beat and delicious; idiosyncratic. Shiny turbidity, vital. More please.

Tag Archives: Neil Prentice Where's the Beef? Initially, I guess I didn’t really care; as long as it was a quality piece of beef, cooked in accordance to the cut and to my liking. I could easily give an opinion (informed or otherwise) on what I believe to be the best cut for a steak, whether dry aged is better than wet aged, marbling and how much, when to season your meat...

Making the great leap forward Chin Chin was a slow train coming (to borrow a line from one of the stalwarts of its nostalgia-soaked soundtrack) but it arrived with the power of a runaway locomotive. Simply pushing open the heavy glass door from Flinders Lane is a sensory experience... Read full article Larissa Dubecki |

The flavour of the land Neil Prentice's wagyu beef tastes of where it was raised. A herd of short, fat black cows grazes by a vineyard in the hills. The cattle are wagyu and the vines in the vineyard produce pinot noir grapes. This is Neil Prentice's partnets' farm at Moondarra, overlooking the Latrobe Valley...

Moondarra Tajima Beef Everything you like about wagyu - only grass-fed. Being grass-fed, Moondarra Tajima has more substance than most wagyu. The muscle is still shot with pale fat but is slightly gamy and has a minerality that reflects its grass-fed provenance... Read full article Richard Cornish |

Chewing the fat With its prized marbling of tasty fat, Wagyu beef has stampeded our local menus. But unscrupulous cooks are cashing in on the cachet with cheap substitutes. It was late 1999 and a small group of friends were sitting around St Kilda's funky new Japanese bar the Birdcage... Read full article Richard Cornish |

Glutton : Council House Forget degustation, the word on everyone's lips is 'locavore'. It means eating seasonal, locally produced food to benefit the environment... while a perfectly cooked slab of Gippsland-raised Moondarra wagyu ($32) banishes my doubts about wagyu steak once and for all. It all makes us proud to be Victorian. Read full article Jane Hutchinson |
