Friday, 12th July 2019 – Porto, Day 2 Friday morning saw Lynne creak into action rather late, but in good time for our first activity of the day. I’d already been out to try and purchase some yogurt for her because she insists it’s needed to kick start her digestion. I’d found a lot of…

Food/Travel 2019 – Porto; Restaurant Palco, Porto, Day 1
Thursday, 11th July 2019 – London, Porto, Restaurant Palco After a great deal of messing about, mostly with structural questions, the planned extension to our home will not now start until January 2020, so having reached that conclusion, we decided we could actually book some holiday time. And so we found ourselves in the car,…

Sunday, 7th July 2019 – Cocktail Recipes (Caipirinha, Sinatra Smash, Long Mango, Kentucky Smash) Here are some of my favourite cocktail recipes, starting with my absolute favourite, the caipirinha.

Monday, 24th June 2019 – The Frog Hoxton, London “Harden’s Invites you to Dinner with Adam Handling at The Frog Hoxton“; that’s what the email said, coming through on the heels of our visit to the most upmarket of the Frog outposts in Covent Garden.

Food 2019 – Mont Bar, Barcelona
Wednesday, 12th June 2019 – Mont Bar, Barcelona While Tuesday night had been very touristy, Wednesday was at the other end of the scale, with some brilliantly inventive takes on pintxos, and some very good wines, in a much more elegant dining room. I’d rounded up a group of stragglers at the hotel and walked…

Thursday, 7th March 2019 – Frog by Adam Handling, London Back in London again for another theatrical event, and having kept costs down on our previous visit, post seeing Sir Ian McKellen, talking entertainingly and at surprising length about his career now he’s turned 80, at the Duke of York’s Theatre, we opted to go…
Food 2019 – Parsons, London
Saturday, 2nd March 2019 – Parsons, London In London for a theatre trip, it’s always a bit of a challenge deciding where to eat and when.
