If you're looking to buy some nice gifts for one of your cooking friends this year then these mat black utensils from Japan may be just the present to put a smile on their face.
Harnessing a clean and modern design they come with a range of appliances - bottle opener, can opener, peeler and grater.
They certainly look the part but do come with some fairly hefty price tags. The grater alone will set you back $64 and if you want to throw the bottle opener into the mix that's another $36 - for those who take style and cooking very seriously.
The utensils are available to order from the Union Made Goods website.
Rather than just being faux-meat, Mamu is different. It's a mushroom-based meat alternative that's getting its launch in restaurants so that chefs can test its versatility. Flora Tsapovsky investigates.
