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. We thought it would be interesting to see what the…

Friday, 26th October 2018/Saturday, 15th June 2019 – The Garage, Buckingham Friday, 26th October 2018 – The Garage, Buckingham The Garage has been open for a while now, based in – you guessed it – an old garage in the middle of Buckingham.

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…
Food 2019 – Frog by Adam Handling, London
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 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…
