In this episode we explore an old resort that was reduced to toothpick status during a recent cyclone on the Queensland Coast.
We pick up our long awaited "Omnia Stove Top Oven' (a modern version of the Wonder Pot) and give you an in-depth review on how it works, why you would want one and what you can cook it it. For cooking on board - this little jigger rocks!

last week we took you exploring
0:02
beautiful border island and de la reine
0:04
islet which sits slightly to the north
0:06
of famous whitehaven beach we had been
0:09
sussing out some caves back at borders
0:11
so climbed up to see what we could find
0:17
with final preparations for our next
0:19
cruising season almost complete we're
0:21
now waiting for our new sewing machine
0:23
to arrive we had heard that South Moore
0:26
Island had been fairly devastated by a
0:28
previous cyclone so we took a few days
0:31
out to relax and see what we could find
0:34
[Music]
0:51
it's pretty steamy this time of year so
0:54
our first port of call after a short
0:56
sale was to head to a quiet little beach
0:59
for a swim
1:00
[Music]
1:11
we consider ourselves very lucky to have
1:14
found the way to be able to live this
1:16
life to spend so much time in nature and
1:19
enjoying what our amazing planet has to
1:21
offer
1:21
[Music]
2:26
this beautiful view is from unsafe
2:29
message over to whitsunday and Hawk
2:31
islands in the central with sunday group
2:34
[Music]
2:46
[Applause]
2:49
nature can get a bit challenging at
2:51
times and dialing up some mighty storms
2:53
a cyclone had passed through this area
2:56
and we were keen to see how one of the
2:58
abandoned resorts had feared
3:04
after some lunch we headed back to shore
3:11
southmore resort sits at the northern
3:13
end of south mole island the Aboriginal
3:17
people discovered bowls attics stone
3:19
here which made for sharp cutting tools
3:22
they call this island were river for
3:25
this reason
3:26
[Music]
3:36
school's over this country I really nice
3:38
to walk along the beach from we were
3:40
anchored up it and we're gonna go and
3:42
check out South Lowell resort they cut
3:44
bold in the cyclone apparently so doctor
3:47
walking chase on this hill and we'll see
3:49
which one takes us there
3:56
[Music]
4:02
so we're walking one of the tracks on
4:05
South Mall and it's just beautiful and
4:09
we're going to walk around to the old
4:11
resort and see what's left of it after
4:13
the cycling but what a gorgeous view you
4:16
have from here you feel like you're
4:17
almost on the edge of the world
4:27
[Music]
4:37
[Music]
4:47
it's a nice spot I think we're in a
4:49
better spot back in the late 20s
5:01
craziest took over then eventually it
5:03
changed hands again in the early 40s
5:05
when it began life as a resort for
5:07
everyday families with basic
5:10
accommodation a golf course restaurant
5:12
Paul and plenty of water-based
5:14
activities visitors could walk the many
5:18
tracks around the island enjoying the
5:20
spectacular views from a loft
5:26
you wouldn't want to be in the front
5:28
rice sleep well for debut in cheeto
5:30
sorry okay no well yeah what a mess of
5:34
destruction
5:42
look at the dedi like a pilot must have
5:45
gone well it's an old jetty it's from
5:49
the 70s yeah they must have been a fair
5:52
pair of waves coming through here it's
5:55
amazing all crumpled up
6:03
[Music]
6:11
[Music]
6:13
yes sir that was a
6:15
that was the main area of South morale
6:18
resort which I think was quite a big
6:19
resort back in the day and then the 70s
6:22
kind of a backpacker a family resort and
6:28
unfortunately she's been bowled by
6:30
Debbie so hopefully she'll get made into
6:34
it a nice brand-new resort for everyday
6:39
folk and some day in the future but what
6:42
a beautiful outlook
6:44
[Music]
6:52
you know they're sitting here
6:54
come in you're in the laconic you know
6:59
don't you see look at this it's a button
7:08
[Music]
7:13
just an absolute beautiful walkthrough
7:21
like
7:25
I'm fluffy looks like Dez is gonna be up
7:31
for a swim to go and get the dinghy
7:38
Ronnie I
7:42
I think you might be up for a swim my
7:45
honey
7:57
and these in
7:59
[Music]
8:20
okey-dokey so I have been waiting for a
8:24
shipment to come in and it's the omnia
8:27
stovetop oven and yeah it's made in
8:32
Sweden and it's a little mini oven
8:36
apparently this magic little item will
8:40
cook breads and brownies and baking sort
8:44
of stuff and casseroles and quiches and
8:47
anything that you can cook in the oven
8:48
and unless your amount of time and use
8:51
less gas
8:52
so as we don't often get to fill up on
8:56
guests regularly because we're tipping
8:59
off to places that don't sell gas in the
9:01
near future I'm trying to reduce our
9:03
usage and this guy's going to do the job
9:06
so how it works basically it comes in
9:11
three parts so this part is made of
9:13
stainless steel and it sits on your hop
9:16
and this container is what you cook your
9:21
food in so you've got three part the hog
9:25
heats up and creates heat in the bottom
9:28
and the heat the food sitting in here
9:31
and the heat comes up through this part
9:34
here and gets trapped in the lid and
9:39
also sort of disperses out of these
9:41
little holes around the side of the oven
9:43
so I excited and I just been prepping a
9:49
few bits I'm gonna make a potato and
9:52
sure it's so sort of kishi number except
9:56
I don't even have after it so I've got
9:59
salami but yep typical yachting style we
10:02
make do with what we've got on board and
10:06
we'll give it a go see how we go
10:14
so I've got salami actually that I've
10:17
cooked off to give it a little bit of
10:20
crispy and I also cooked off some
10:22
potatoes and and then getting a bit of a
10:27
fry up in some herbs to give them a bit
10:31
of flavor II crispy thing we've got some
10:33
red capsicum I don't think six eggs is
10:38
going to really be enough anyway and
10:41
then I'm gonna add a little bit of spit
10:42
up just just give it a bit of salty
10:46
whoosh
10:53
I definitely don't have enough eggs this
10:58
could be like a half-baked concept
11:02
anyway I'll stop being more stuff and
11:05
see how we go okay so what I've got in
11:13
here is salami and cooked off potato and
11:19
some red capsicum and some feta so
11:22
hopefully I'll have enough eggs to cover
11:25
that all we definitely don't we thought
11:39
I needed one more but anyway okay
11:53
or elevators I know your will my love
11:56
you're very good rut you have nothing
12:01
left so the instructions say that you
12:04
hate the stainless steel base for two
12:08
and a half hour sorry for three minutes
12:10
and then you plunk your meal on top and
12:13
cook away so that's not very interesting
12:23
[Music]
12:29
okay 18 seconds there's a lot of heat in
12:34
it I didn't see how that would work
12:41
all right thank you okay
12:52
Mickey I'll put this on
13:09
okay so then another minute and then we
13:18
sort of turn it down to just about above
13:21
medium I will turn it down a bit and
13:27
then how long about 17 minutes cuz
13:31
normally it would take about 40 minutes
13:33
or 50 minutes okay so we shall see if so
13:39
I think I've got six minutes to go
13:43
and I wish I could have like a little
13:46
viewing panel so I could see what was
13:48
going on in there but um yeah it's
13:51
certainly a lot of heat created to miss
13:53
it it is a little compact oven you can
13:55
really feel it
13:57
and it smells you can hear it sort of
14:03
bubbling away and you can smell this
14:07
lovely food which is great and hopefully
14:12
I've just managed to sort of keep it at
14:14
the right temperature to stop the eggs
14:16
from burning it's a bit of a tricky one
14:18
and apparently every ovens a little bit
14:21
different and we'll learn our way with
14:23
the oven so just because the heat source
14:27
is a little bit different and you can't
14:28
hold the template you can't figure out
14:30
what the temperature is going on inside
14:31
so much so yeah be a bit of a learning
14:34
game it'll be interesting to see what
14:36
comes out
14:59
that's a know what's so curious two and
15:11
a half minutes
15:11
good luck Dona I won't be revealed mmm
15:14
it's so tempting to pull the little of
15:16
them we really want to see what's going
15:20
on a man smells good the ice smells
15:25
yummy mm-hmm 30 seconds patience is a
15:33
virtue isn't that what they always say
15:37
apparently so we used to have to dress
15:41
up at school and our little goofy
15:43
outfits and go to the cathedral and sing
15:45
and I always used to get a little banner
15:49
that I'd walk around walk down the
15:50
cathedral with steps said patience is a
15:53
virtue
15:54
oh oh it's gonna be revealed
15:57
thank you dokie
16:04
now huh
16:07
oh wow that looks amazing
16:13
vocalizing she was she takes one enough
16:16
success was enough perfect
16:29
all right still not cook them they're
16:32
Magga but I bet it's cook that feels
16:36
definitely cooked over that side there
16:37
so we need to turn it round okay okay so
16:46
we gave it an extra five minutes and
16:48
[Applause]
16:50
turn it up a little bit more to get some
16:52
heat back and do it and we shall see if
16:56
that was long enough
17:12
right yo so awesome what I thought
17:17
initially was that the pan was actually
17:19
too big for our oven for our burner and
17:22
it is so I'll just have to remember next
17:25
time to turn it around halfway through
17:27
the cooking so that it cooks evenly but
17:30
yeah I'll just let that sit for another
17:31
couple of minutes and I think the
17:34
general heat of the egg will keep
17:36
cooking through and then we might taste
17:41
it I'm thirsty
17:55
no look at that expert exciting
18:08
okay so thanks so much for watching I
18:11
hope you enjoyed that video if you are
18:14
looking into the omnia I hope you found
18:16
it quite informative as to what it can
18:19
cook so since then we have cooked a
18:22
couple more different frittata type
18:24
things and brownies and banana bread and
18:28
bread and uh yeah they've all turned out
18:31
pretty good so yeah very happy with that
18:34
investment our ship's oven is just a
18:39
typical sized ship's oven but it does
18:42
use a lot of gas heating up that whole
18:44
area for cooking for just the two of us
18:46
on board so I have been tending not to
18:49
use the oven so this little compact unit
18:51
the little omnia perfect for us and
18:55
it'll bake up things that great grabbed
19:00
out of the fridge passage food so yeah
19:03
we just cut up that food into and to
19:06
grab it portions and you can just
19:08
basically stuff and run and get an
19:10
energy energy boost a healthy energy
19:11
boost when you need it so yeah we're
19:13
pretty happy about that and I think in
19:16
conjunction with our pressure cooker
19:17
that we use a lot it'll do more the
19:20
baking side of things which the pressure
19:21
cooker I hadn't been tending to use for
19:23
so yeah I totally recommend it if you're
19:27
thinking of buying one I shall pop the
19:29
link below to the omneya website and you
19:35
can check them out
19:37
so yeah pretty busy times on board at
19:39
the minute we're trucking our way north
19:43
and heading over to the louisia it's and
19:47
the Solomons in the next wee while so
19:50
yep very excited about that will be
19:54

19:57
