Food 2016 – Vibin’s, Buckingham (2nd Visit)
Saturday 24th December, 2016 – Vibin’s, Buckingham Back in the day we used to go to the Roade House for lunch/dinner on Christmas Eve, on the basis that I’d be doing all the cooking for the next few days and could use a day off before the big event. With the retirement of Sue and…

Food 2016 – Neni and the Marlene Bar, Berlin
Sunday, December 5th 2916 – Neni, 25, Berlin and Marlene Bar, Intercontinental Hotel, Berlin Dinner on the final night stood in remarkable contrast in many ways to the two restaurants that went before.
