Grow Yer Own Dang Food opens in Amsterdam! Offering “micro green cuisine”, an “expression of contemporary culture and superior low carbon footprint values in the form of a restaurant.”

“Every disaster or half-result becomes, then, your teacher. I find the discipline and recourses provided in failure a much more manageable bridle between my teeth than the standard preaching of some experts and most certified chefs.”

“Learn how to open your senses to the colour, shape, texture, smells, and flavours of your ingredients and give yourself open, wide permission to play. Don’t try to make your dishes look like the swank arrangements of haute cuisine for art-directed people

“the kitchen here at ‘theRestaurant’ presents a quite non-expert, intentionally biased and unschooled cuisine based on my on-going work with intuition, food, creativity, and health.”

OK, Nigella Lawson is a slightly divergent note in this collection of links about radical and creative food practices. But comfort food has its place too – and this dish fits that bill nicely. Yum.
