ABOUT ME

Hello. I write stuff. And I cook stuff. And I eat stuff. Sometimes this stuff coincides.

I started this blog in February 2009, partly because MasterChef was winding me up (it still winds me up), partly because I'm writing a Burmese cookbook and wanted to see if I had an audience, and partly because I missed writing full stop.

I cover all aspects of food - restaurant reviews, recipes, cookery books, products and food TV shows. I get distracted easily.

If you want to know more - click the photo above.

I have two other blogs which I occasionally write:

• The Haiku Review - easing the backlog on meemalee's kitchen (guest contributors welcome)
• Pumpkin Gregg - charting the changing moods and eventual decline of the Pumpkin incarnation of Mr Gregg Wallace.

Off-line, as well as writing my first book, I am also available for freelance commissions - for more information, please contact my agent Juliet Pickering at AP Watt.

Oh, and my name is MiMi (two big Ems).

"Meemalee" is the nickname my best friend at college gave me. I have no idea why. It's pronounced mee-muh-lee.

You can email me here. Be nice.

Ask me an anonymous question here. I may ignore it.
