A QUICK WORD OF WITH DEBORAH SAMS

I grew up at Whale Beach. In my 20s and 30s I lived in the east [of Sydney] and in my early 30s I moved back to Avalon and have lived there ever since with my husband and my son. It's so beautiful, you have nature at your doorstep. We're beach people and we have water all around us.

There's some great little holes in the wall on the northern beaches. There's a place called Queen Ester Falafel, which opened recently. It's a really small menu of Israeli street food and it's just amazing.

I think Sydney has one of the best restaurant scenes in the world. I like honest, simple food, I don't like Michelin-starred dining - that's not my thing. Apollo would be my number one, and Fred's and Beppi's.

We are a breakfast family. In winter, the sun comes into the house and we sit and have breakfast. Then it's soccer and lunch. In the afternoon, we light a fire and chill. In summer, we get to the beach early and then hang out in the house.

HEART AND SOUL

Not a vegetable but rather a flower bud that rises on a thistle, the artichoke is a complex delight. Its rewards are hard won; first you must get past the armour of petals and remove the hairy choke. Those who step up are rewarded with sweet and savoury creaminess and the elusive flavour of spring. Many of the recipes here begin with the same Provençal braise. Others call on the nuttiness of artichokes in their raw form. The results make pasta lighter and chicken brighter or can be fried to become a vessel for bold flavours all of which capture the levity of the season.
