Who are Rosemary and Pork Belly?
A food and travel-loving couple who’ve spent over 30 years enjoying round-the-world backpacking trips, fact-finding European tours and UK leisure breaks.
They have lived and worked in Hong Kong, Australia and New Zealand as well as taking extended trips to Thailand, Singapore, America and France.
And there’s still so much more they want to see.
Because of Rosemary’s allergy to cow’s milk they lean towards “free-from” diets and many of their recipes are specifically designed with that in mind.
Pork Belly takes the photos and does the cooking; Rosemary writes and does the eating.
