Guinea pig in white wine sauce

Alan Rochford

take one chef, a stone cottage, a dash of eccentricity, and voila! a recipe for disaster

Alan Rochford was living the dream when he started Stone Cottage, an idyllic French restaurant nestling in the Adelaide Hills. He had everything going for him apart from experience, money, and the first idea about what he was doing. After two years and one divorce, he began to see the funny side, fed on a endless diet of characters and occurrences so crazy that you couldn't make them up. Alan Rochford serves up a degustation of lip-smacking anecdotes, from snail trading across the French countryside, to the time two over-amorous customers set his dinning room on fire. Wild and irreverent, this is the tale of one man trying to keep his head in the certifiably insane world of fine dining
