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. This time, post seeing Gillian Anderson in the rather splendid “All About Eve” at the Noel Coward Theatre in the afternoon, and having fortified ourselves with cocktails at Seven…
Food 2019 – Sanchez, Copenhagen
Monday, February 24th 2019 – Sanchez, Copenhagen Sanchez has been open since the end of 2017 and there’s been so much buzz around the place that I realised I needed to get there. Arriving in Copenhagen on my own with no colleagues in tow, I had the choice of going wherever I chose for dinner…
Food 2019 – French Affaire, Stony Stratford
Friday, 8th February 2019 – French Affaire, Stony Stratford I’d got wind of a new place opening up in Stony Stratford, in the space that used to be Cameron’s Kitchen. With Dan and Ailie having moved on, it stood empty for a while but is now a currently predominantly lunchtime place called French Affaire. However,…
Food 2019 – Anarki, Copenhagen
Thursday, January 25th 2019 – Anarki, Copenhagen January was mostly quiet, if you ignore the massive birthday party I threw in the second week, and meant that there wasn’t a great deal to write about. However, I did have another business trip to Copenhagen, and having stayed one night longer than my fellow non-Danish colleagues…
Food 2018/2019 – Kodbyens Fiskebar, Copenhagen
Monday, 29th October 2018/Tuesday, 22nd January 2019 – Kodbyens Fiskebar, Copenhagen If you ask me to pick a favourite restaurant in Copenhagen I’d be hard pressed to give you any answer that wasn’t Kødbyens Fiskebar. I have been several times, and I just keep on returning for a variety of reasons. One of the main…
Travel/Food 2018 – La Nonna and Bar Douro, London
Thursday, 20th December 2018 – La Nonna, Bar Douro, London Having taken an afternoon off in order to use up the last of my holiday for 2018, and to make it easier to do some serious food shopping, IÂ decided I would walk to Borough Market from the office. It takes a good 20 minutes…
Food 2018 – Bar Encore, Towcester
Saturday, 17th November/11th December 2018 – Bar Encore, Towcester After a couple of slightly rocky visits to Bar Encore when I’d repeatedly had to teach the cocktail barman how to make a caipirinha (and the answer is not the way he was making it with syrup and lime juice – but I digress and to…
Food 2018 – The Yard, Towcester
Friday, December 7th 2018 – The Yard, Towcester It pains me to have to do what is essentially going to be a hatchet job on any restaurant but we tried the latest place to open in our home town last Friday and it was not an edifying affair. La Strada, after a chequered half decade…
Food 2018 – Gaijin, Helsinki
Sunday, 2nd December 2018 – Gaijin, Helsinki Sunday night in Helsinki (and even more so in the rest of Finland in our experience) is a tricky one. Because staff are paid a hefty premium for working on a Sunday, open restaurants are hard to find, if not almost impossible as we discovered in Hämeenlinna in…
