The Day I cooked for the Queen
I’ll never forget the day I got a call from the premier’s cabinet: sounds like a lovely piece of wooden furniture, but it was actually a very important person on the other end of the phone requesting my cooking services for the Queen’s visit to WA for CHOGM.
At first I had to decline: I was booked in for a kids’ cup cake comp at home in Denmark (500km south of Perth) that very day. My response was greeted with an awkward silence at the end of the phone. The gentleman couldn’t believe that a cup cake was trumping an opportunity to cook for the Queen. After 5 minutes deliberation and creative thinking I called him back and accepted the Royal gig and managed to honour my cup cake comp commitments.
It’s a very long story, and I won’t go into the gruesome details but it did involve a chauffeur, a knight in shiny white limo, lots of security, a rubber inflatable boat, wet hair, another limousine and a helicopter in a “no fly” zone. It was an honour meeting the Queen and arriving at the cup cake gig in a helicopter made the kids think I was a megastar. One of the most surreal days of my life.
