YOUR MISSION COMPLETED: SHOWING LEFTOVERS SOME LOVE
YOUR MISSION COMPLETED: SHOWING LEFTOVERS SOME LOVE Gastroposters aren’t the type to let good food go to waste. This was clear with all the inspiring ways you came up with making leftovers into delicious new meals. From cleaning out the fridge for a fry-up to repurposing leftover Easter eats, you gave us plenty of ideas to make odds and ends meet! On these pages, Instagram handles are in brown and Twitter in blue.

When we sit down to chow down, it’s always the smell that first gets us salivating. That’s why, this week, we want you to celebrate the sense of smell by posting your favourite fragrant foods that get the olfactory system running! Whether it’s something strong like a stinky cheese that’s putting you in an aroma coma or exotic spices offering a more subtle odour, who needs scratch and sniff technology? With this mission, we expect to be smelling your posts right off the page! “To me, the most mouthwatering aroma belongs to the char grilled rump steak. Simply intoxicating!” says Gastroposter Alexandra Tang
