Welcome to the online world of Australian food writers Allan Campion and Michele Curtis. We've been involved in the local food scene through writing cookbooks and food guides since the early 1990's. We both started out in careers as chefs and have taken our interest in great cooking into writing about food. Our writing centres around the themes of seasonality, great home cooking and searching out the best food shops of Melbourne.

Each year our annual releases include The Seasonal Produce Diary and The Foodies' Guide to Melbourne (the 2008 editions are now available).
We also have a new 600 recipe book titled Every Day Cooking. Food lovers will also be pleased to know that our award winning cookbook Every Day in The Kitchen is back in print too.

All current Campion and Curtis books can now be ordered on the books page, so you can order a signed copy to come directly to your door.

We're also involved in Foodies' Tours of Melbourne. These are available for the public and private bookings, plus school groups.
Full details and costs are available on the Foodies' Tour website.

A great variety of cooking classes and demonstrations are also available, these are particularly popular for staff activities.
