    ABOUT THE BOOK

    The memoir of a beloved cook, told through the kitchens and recipes that shaped her. 'A beautiful Australian who feeds our hearts and soul.' Virginia Trioli

Annie takes us on a journey through every significant kitchen in her life, both domestic and professional, sharing with engaging honesty her personal development, her surprisingly complex relationship with food, and the lessons she has learned along the way to find her niche in the culinary world.

    ABOUT ANNIE SMITHERS

    Annie Smithers is one of Australia's most highly regarded chefs and one of the first chefs to truly epitomise the paddock-to-plate ethos. With a career spanning well over thirty years, Annie has
    spent the last quarter of a century in the Macedon Ranges and Hepburn Spa region of Victoria. Her restaurant du Fermier, in the small village of Trentham, is a tiny establishment. Annie does
    all the cooking, offering a menu du jour that features vegetables picked that day from her kitchen garden and meats and poultry from the surrounding area. Annie lives on a small farm in Lyonville – Babbington Park – only ten minutes from Trentham, where her kitchen garden and orchard are planted and producing a bounty of produce for the restaurant.

    Annie has written two cookbooks and writes for The Saturday Paper fortnightly. Her first memoir, Recipe for a Kinder Life, published in 2021. (Photo by Sandy Scheltema)
