Wednesday, 4th April 2008 – Tamagogani (Dried Soft Shell Crabs) I’m a pretty adventurous eater as many of you will have gathered by now. A colleague and I just fell into conversation by the coffee machine and he has just recently returned from Japan. He asked me if I’d tried Japanese soft shell crabs and…

Food 2018 – Launceston Place, London
Sunday, April 1st 2018 – Launceston Place, London In London for a couple of exhibitions, we decided that we should stop off for an Easter Sunday lunch somewhere close to the Design Museum where we had tickets for Ferrari: Under the Skin in the afternoon. The morning saw us at the National Gallery, viewing Reflections:…
Food 2018 – Elsie’s Cafe “Binner”, Northampton
Tuesday, 27th March 2018 – Elsie’s Cafe, The Lane Restaurant, Northampton I’ve been following Elsie’s Cafe for a while now on social media. Elsie’s Cafe was started as part of a response to The Real Junk Food Project, which led to a group of people who had set up Fruitful Abundance in Northamptonshire to decide…
Travel/Food 2018 – Kødbyens Fiskebar, Copenhagen
Wednesday, 21st/Friday, 23rd March 2018 – Tivoli Food Hall, Kodbyens Fiskebar, Copenhagen Back again, this time for two nights, I made it to the lovely Hotel Danmark by around 20:30, spent five minutes unpacking and then headed to the lobby to meet up with Andy, my colleague.

Food 2018 – Cassons, Tangmere
Saturday, 16th March 2018 – Cassons, Tangmere There are areas of the country that seem very bleak from a culinary point of view. Sussex, thankfully, is better than most counties in this respect, so while we were not exactly spoiled for choice when we went down to Goodwood, we did at least have a decent…
Travel/Food 2018 – Gorilla, Copenhagen
Tuesday, 27th/Wednesday 28th February 2018 – Gorilla, Copenhagen And so for the second time this year I found myself in Copenhagen on business. This trip was quite a lot tougher. Due to a variety of circumstances, some of them down to my own lack of organisation, we’d been out late in London the night before…
Food 2018 – Hibiscus, Northampton
Tuesday 13th February, 2018 – Hibiscus, Derngate Theatre, Northampton It being Lynne’s birthday (and a significant birthday at that) we would normally have celebrated at The Vine House but they were closed while Julie, one half of the couple who own the place, was having a knee replacement operation. We needed an alternative venue and…
Travel/Food 2018 – Copenhagen Brewpub, Hotel Danmark, Copenhagen
Monday, 29th/Tuesday 30th January 2018 – Hotel Danmark, Copenhagen Brewpub, Copenhagen I’ve been over to Copenhagen three times already this year and it seems odd that I don’t currently have a trip scheduled for this month… anyway, I’ll start with the first trip of the year, back in January. Once again faced with the idea…
Food/Travel 2017 – Krakow, Day 6
Tuesday December 5th – Day 6, Krakow Tuesday was our last day and so after breakfast we tidied up the apartment, dropped off the keys and hauled our suitcases to the offices of the travel company who would be responsible for taking us to the airport in the evening. We were there just before 09:00…
Food/Travel 2017 – Krakow, Day 5
Monday December 4th – Day 5, Krakow Monday was something of a challenge as many, many things in Krakow are closed on Mondays. Note to self for future reference: check carefully what days you plan on being in a city for a Winter break and adjust accordingly if every major sight will be closed. However,…
