Saturday, 8th October 2016 – Galvin la Chapelle, Spitalfields, London Another Saturday, another restaurant, another Groupon deal. Post-theatre (No Man’s Land, Wyndhams Theatre) we made our somewhat convoluted way to Spitalfields, an area of London that has changed beyond all recognition in the years since I used to cut along Commerical Road to get to…

Food 2016 – PokÄ“, London
Thursday, 20th October 2016 – PokÄ“, West India Quay, London Another day at Canary Wharf, another trip to Kerb at the Quay for lunch. After the preponderance of somewhat less healthy options I decided this time I would try and do myself some good with my lunchtime choice so I had a quick look at…
Food 2016 – Crabbieshack and House of Dodo, London
October 2016 – Crabbieshack, House of Dodo, West India Quay, London With winter coming on fast the wonderful Kerb on the Quay people are winding down with the last outing of 2016 taking place last week.

Food 2016 – Vibin’s, Buckingham
Thursday, 20th October 2016 – Vibin’s, Buckingham Vibin’s, nee Halibut once upon a time, was a restaurant on our radar ever since the late and much-lamented Roade House went the way of all flesh and robbed us of a regular, not too expensive but very good indeed, eating haunt. And so, on a cold, damp…
Food 2016 – Cameron’s Kitchen (Chilean Wine Dinner), Stony Stratford
Wednesday 19th October, 2016 – Cameron’s Kitchen, Stony Stratford Cameron’s have for a long time run a series of wine dinners, based around a country or region and with food chosen to match. And so after a gap where they’d been trying to figure out what region to go for next, we found ourselves attending…
Food 2016 – Morse Bar/Ashmolean Dining Room, Oxford
Saturday, 15th October 2016 – The Morse Bar/The Ashmolean Dining Room, Oxford A trip to Oxford was always on the cards this Autumn after the Ashmolean Museum announced that they were exhibiting four Rembrandt paintings (his earliest known works) so we knew we needed to see those. It helps that the Ashmolean, since it was…
Food 2016 – The Vine House, Paulerspury
Thursday, 13th October 2016 – The Vine House, Paulerspury We’ve loved the Vine House for some considerable time, even if we can’t afford it too often, given that we never seem to be able to get out without spending twice as much on wine as we do on food. However, for special events it’s very…

Theatre 2016 – No Man’s Land, London
Saturday, 8th October 2016 – No Man’s Land, Wyndham’s Theatre, London An opportunity presented itself early on this year to lay hands on tickets to see No Man’s Land at Wyndham’s Theatre in Covent Garden. When the two leads are played by Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen it would have been frankly churlish not to…
Food 2016 – Crabbieshack, London
Thursday 29th September 2016 – Crabbieshack, Kerb @ Quay, Canary Wharf, London Another day, another trip to Kerb on the Quay over on West India Quay! This is getting to be a slightly dangerous habit – just as well they’re only there Wednesday to Friday (and I’m not always)… As far as I know the…
