@majorrage All looks great mate and may I say on behalf of all the UK Ferners, we can't wait for the invite.
Interested in how you did the crab linguine. I do a Gordon Ramsay quick one with garlic, chilli, white wine and lime juice. Very easy and bloody tasty. Also interested in the £22 St Estephe. Any more details?
Sorry to interject (not really), I use the basic method of this guy who I saw on Anthony Bourdain's no reservations
Starts at 15 minutes. Works with most seafood, depending on my mood I will add a little chilli, a little lemon and parsley, some cherry tomatoes or a combination of all. What you do get from his method is a really clear taste of the seafood

I must admit I've bought fruit from various sources. Theirs is not the cheapest. But hands down their feijoas taste the best. Will have to buy some more

I would never pay for passionfruit or feijoas. You usually know someone who gives them away for free.
We have a feijoa tree in the backyard and they are farkin' huge, but bloody tasty.
Lucky bastard

Is there a reason why we don't get feijoas here in Oz? Do they not grow well here? Or are Aussie palates just too heathen to appreciate them?
Maybe not called feijoa? They call them pineapple guava over here.

The distribution of feijoa around the world is fucking weird.
Somewhere in the 'Stans - or some quick research suggests Azerbaijan or Georgia - I was very surprised to suddenly see feijoa juice on the shelves in every store. Cross another land-border, or the Caspian Sea - and it completely disappeared. -

That's what they were called in the US too. The price the supermarket was charging was ridiculous, and that was 20 years ago.

Bay Tropics fruit. Tastes as good as it looks
I think I'll give it a miss then as it looks like stuff out of a drained pond.
