Crustacean Orgasm Date
About two years ago I fell in love with a guy called Mannix (well it turns out his name isn’t really Mannix …) It’s been my little secret, but somehow I don’t think my boy objects (well when swallowing down that chocolate cake otherwise known as ‘Roxie’ – there were no objections!).
It turns out Mannix is an Aussie living in the US and is making quite a name for himself with his culinary skills.
Mannix runs one of my favourite websites The Love Bite full of droolworthy photography, amazing recipes and delectable date ideas, this site is the hub for all things delicious.
The clueless can start out with the date guid e- actually anyone wanting to (in his words) learn the art of seduction should head here first! To begin, he sets the scene – we chose the crustacean orgasm today, if his words aren’t enough to draw you in “candles, roses, champagne… a mirrored table top” the beautiful photography will be!
Next we head to the menu to see just what’s on offer – oysters, prawns, lobster tails and dipping sauce…the recipes are all included…Lobster tails sounds quite fine right about now!
Then it’s onto ‘Mood’, Mannix covers all bases so even the most bland and boring person can turn into the ultimate catch! Sight, sound touch, taste and smell are covered. Mannix even links to a play list you can download to play on the night. Step by step instructions are included (for this date he suggests things like votives, flowers floating in clear glass bowls and twinkling candlelight)
Next is the Shopping List- print it off, take it to the supermarket and you’ll be set- tips on picking the best seafood are included!
Everything is set for your night of romance !(or perhaps the meet the parents dinner is more appropriate? or the breakfast in bed, which includes gingerbread toast)
Perhaps you’ve passed the seduction phase and just want to make some really good food, Mannix has you covered here too – from sexy sides to sweet stuff Mannix’s recipes cover you…the names are divine and the recipes are easy but delicious!
Roxie The Chocolate Harlot
Roxie the Chocolate Harlot went down a treat at my boy’s last birthday, and Jocasta, the fig and date tart is a certain family members favourite.
Coco The Burlesque Wonder Cake has been applauded by Nigella fans (just check out her forum!) and is said to outdo any other chocolate cake.
Every recipe is straight forward- but every recipe has a special wow factor. I’m hooked and desperate for The Love Bite to turn into a book so I don’t have to lug my laptop into the kitchen every night!
