I always thought that some of the most friendly people I’ve met are the Irish and the Australian, after the Maltese of course . In some way or another I was lucky to work with people coming from both countries and my experiences were positive and fun. Some weeks ago, Berenice, a Maltese friend of [...]

If my inbox were allowed to ping annoyingly it would have. There are some emails that look innocent enough and yet lead to a rancorous sequence of events, one that spirals gently and unstoppably downhill like the drive back from the snow-covered slopes after a week of fun and booze. Being so nihilistic with my [...]

I am a huge pasta fan. If I were faced to choose between homemade fresh pasta and dry pasta, I would choose the former, but a quality dry pasta cooked appropriately, is a standard at home. 3 times a week we put together a few ingredients with 225g (for 2) of pasta (short, long, big, [...]

Apart from the classical season during October and November, Tartufo (Bianchetto in this case) is also found between January and April. Although it is less prestigious and hence less expensive it is still sought after by many. Whilst shopping at The White Sheep in Gzira 3 weeks ago, I was asked whether I wanted some [...]

A client of ours has decided to undertake some Primary Research. Basics, one would say. I fear that too many companies do not investigate enough before a new [...]

A Maltese meets a Caribbean in India under a Moroccan Sun. His name is sea bass and for convenience sake, he has been stripped down to his flesh leaving his bones and his remaining bits to boil in preparation for an “aljotta” (A typical Maltese fish soup). But today’s recipe is no soup. We shall [...]
