Nigella Lawson at the Melbourne Food and Wine Festival –

Nigella Lawson made it into fashion at the Melbourne Food and Wine Festival on Sunday.

The British chef was spotted on his way to the Drinks With Nigella event.

The 62-year-old model was as elegant as ever in a fitted black cotton dress.

The flared skirt added a whimsical touch to the dress, while the high neck detail was paired with a shallow V-neck.

For her debut, Nigella opted for natural-looking makeup, including a pastel lipstick and some blush.

Her hair was half-tied, curls around her face, and she finished off the look with a pair of candy-pink heels.

At the Drink with Black Seed event, fans can enjoy snacks and drinks with the author, who also gives a speech on stage.

“I really enjoy cooking and writing books, but what really gives me life is meeting my readers,” Nigella said the night before.

“Food plays a very important role in our lives, and I’m always keen to engage in dialogue from the many conversations that surround it. Food is the story of what it’s like to be human: It’s not just about what we eat, it’s also about how we live.

Last week, Nigella revealed that she mispronounced a few words for fun after sparking controversy over her saying “microwave.”

In 2020, the chef wowed fans with “meecro-wah-vey” in the microwave on an episode of the BBC2 cooking show Cook, Eat, Repeat.

When she appeared on The Project in Australia, the London-born family goddess said it wasn’t her only quirk.

“I am very happy to cook and write my books, but what really gives me life is meeting you, my readers,” Nigella said the night before.

“Food plays a very important role in our lives and I’m always open to conversations, yes, lots of conversations going on,” she continued.

“Food is the story of what it’s like to be human: it’s not just about what we eat, it’s about how we live,” Nigella concludes.

“There are other words I use. You know how all families talk nonsense? I mean, you know, I use “unholy coconut,” she admitted.

“When I get a new device, I have to read ‘breakdowns’. When I go somewhere, I have to text someone and tell them I’m there, you know?’ she loved it.

“It’s just a joke, false words. The interesting thing is that I found out later: So all families have these words in one way or another.”

Intimate: The event “explores the personal, intuitive and connected nature of the kitchen”

Share: Nigella shared her knowledge about food and her passion for living on stage

“There’s a lot to talk about,” she said before stepping onto the stage.

Nigella also admitted that she enjoyed the kebab after spending a night on the town.

“I prefer the potato chip kebab. So one of my favorites is focaccia, hummus, some lemon zest, some salt, some chips and wrap them up. It’s huge,” she said.

While cooking a rich, buttery mashed potato on the Cook, Eat, Repeat 2020 episode, Nigella told fans: “I still need some milk, I reheated it in a fat-filled, meecro-wahvey.” .’

In a series of subsequent Twitter posts, the cookbook author had to respond to dozens of fans explaining the microwave joke, adding that he hoped the “brouhaha” would end.
