Food 2018/2019 – Guildhall Lunch Market, London
Thursday 6th December 2018/Thursday, 10th January/Thursday, 25th April/Thursday, 23rd May 2019 – Food (Jollof Mama, Simply Paella, Nikskitchen, Parson’s Nose) The Guild Hall Lunch Market is a fine thing as far as I’m concerned, as it brings a variety of street food traders all together in one place, and unlike say the weekly Kerb market…
Food 2019 – The Chinese Cricket Club, London
Wednesday, 22nd May 2019 – The Chinese Cricket Club, London This one was not of my choosing – it was a work-related dinner – but turned out to be much better than you might expect of a restaurant in an hotel (the Crowne Plaza Blackfriars). With a group of 13 of us booked to dine…
Food 2019 – Aldo Zilli and San Carlo Restaurants at Weston Hall Supper Club, Weston
Friday, 17th May 2019 – Aldo Zilli and San Carlo Restaurants A couple more Weston Supper Club events came and went in May and July, with mixed results, the July event being far more successful than this one, which was disappointing in a number of ways.

Food 2019 – Recipes (Caribbean Pineapple)
Sunday, 28th April 2019 – Recipes (Caribbean Pineapple) A recipe of my very own, though it’s not exactly difficult or complicated (it does, however, require you to feel confident about caramelisation). It came about when a pineapple went slightly over and was about to become unusable… Caribbean Pineapple Serves: 2 Time: 20-30 minutes Ingredients: 1…

Saturday, 27th April 2019 – Recipes (Wild Garlic Pesto, Wild Garlic Pasta, Wild Garlic Velouté, Pickled Wild Garlic Buds) I like wild garlic, possibly excessively… and I have a patch in my garden that is pretty much full of it at this time of year.

Food 2019 – Recipes (Souffléd Crab and Asparagus Tart)
Monday, 22nd April 2019 – Recipes (Souffléd Crab and Asparagus Tart) I made this over the weekend because I wanted a change from asparagus with ham or with Hollandaise sauce or both, and I had a couple of dressed crab in the freezer. I’ve been buying Food & Travel magazine for a while, which won’t…
