Her fans are hungry for more Danielle Nicastri MasterChef contestant Joanne Zalm at Dee Why Grand yesterday. Picture: ANNIKA ENDERBORG ~PP401404 MASTERCHEF star Joanne Zalm took to the stage in front of an enthusiastic crowd of fans yesterday at Dee Why's newest shopping centre -- the Dee Why Grand. The new cooking celebrity entertained the audience of shoppers by preparing a fresh fennel, grapefruit, prawn and avocado salad, and revealed a surprise ingredient -- apple juice in place of vinegar. Following the show's phenomenal ratings success, Ms Zalm said she plans to pursue a career in food magazines and to get as much industry work experience as she can. And, just as on the highly popular TV program, towards the end the audience counted down the time she had left to prepare her dish. ToPage2 Stick your cutbacks Council pays call centre to handle beach stickers as readers say... Brenton Cherry WARRINGAH Council is spend- ing thousands of ratepayer dollars to have a Victorian call centre handle residents' applications for beach parking stickers. Quantum Multimedia, which council already uses for its out-of- hours calls, has taken over the 24-hour-a-day, seven-day-a-week registration service. This was deemed necessary after the council put an end to the process that saw the beach park- ing permits automatically sent out to ratepayers with their rates notices. Now residents must apply and submit their car's registration details in the process. The council has claimed this change will ensure Warringah ratepayers are not subsidising free parking at our beaches for people who live outside the area. But the decision to strip resi- dents of one sticker has been met with anger by ratepayers, who have flooded The Manly Daily with phone calls, letters and online comments. When pressed yesterday, the council could not provide an exact figure on what it would cost to use Quantum Multimedia. General manager Rik Hart said: ''Warringah Council already has an arrangement with the call centre to take after-hours calls. The beach parking permit scheme falls under this agreement. ''It is difficult to provide an accurate number because it will depend on the number of calls to the call centre relating to the beach parking permit scheme.'' What Mr Hart did reveal was how much it was going to cost the council to mail out out the stickers to residents. ''Council pays a reduced postage rate at Australia Post,'' he said.
