Adelaide is blessed by all things food and wine and that means we are home to quite a few food bloggers. While most are earnest and driven by passion, a few are slimy and misguided and resort to buying fake followers and likes for their social media accounts so they can trick businesses into paying for their social coverage. Today's guests abhor such shady practices, are fully immersed in the foodie world and they have a real talent for whetting the appetite for all things food. Dr George Ujvary is South Australia's first food blogger as The Foodologist, a lecturer in Gastronomy at Le Cordon Bleu, Australia, managing director of his family's business, Olga's Fine Foods, and a board member of Food South Australia and Master Butchers Limited. Amanda McInerney blogs as Lambs Ears And Honey covering how and where to eat all around the world along with how to find the best food and drink wherever you find yourself, she is a contributor to SA Life, a program director for the Tasting Australia food/travel bloggers conference Words To Go, and co-founder of Food Bloggers Australia.
