Anchovy at Fat Pig Farm - The Residency We have long admired Thi Le's cooking, from her collab she did at Dark MOFO in Hobart a few year's back and from afar when she cooks at her Richmond based Vietnamese inspired eatery. Sadie even took me to Melbourne's Anchovy in the week pre Covid, on a very rare date night in Melbourne. Sadie ended up spending half the night talking to Thi, showing each other photos of radicchio and swapping tips on market gardeners and produce while I just rejoiced in the flavours.
