Lunch with the Prime Minister at the Lodge is one thing, but lunch cooked by the Prime Minister in his Canberra residence, especially and only for you, affords another level of bragging rights. After seven seasons of ABC’s foodie-politico interview program Kitchen Cabinet, Annabel Crabb can now claim those rights.
Stepping over the threshold of the Lodge for the first time in her 30-year career, Crabb wastes no time in getting to know more about Anthony Albanese, the man she has watched morph from a “left-wing bomb thrower” to, as he describes the current Labor Party, “a mainstream force in Australian politics”.
