Julia Zemiro’s Home Delivery: Dec 11

Adam Liaw is Julia Zemiro's the final guest this year.

Adam Liaw is the final guest on Julia Zemiro’s Home Delivery this year.

Malaysian born Adam Liaw grew up in the hills of Adelaide. He takes Julia, in the universally under appreciated 1989 Volvo 240, to his old family home and the memories come rushing back as they tour the house; the smells, the light, the radiator he burnt himself on and the bamboo stand where his grandmother said a witch lived.

We meet Adam’s father who describes the young Adam and his older brother as precocious. Both were accelerated through school, where we visit, before travelling to a favourite spot in the Botanical Gardens Adam would visit with his mother and grandmother.

He describes his decision to leave his high-powered legal career to become a MasterChef contestant. We hear how his grandmother dragged the family out of poverty by winning a small amount in Lotto, which meant her kids could stay in school and forge professional careers.

8pm tonight on ABC.
