11th February to 18th March 2018 – 185 Watling Street, Ten Hands Café, The Ganges, Towcester We’ve been doing a fair amount of local eating again with the start of 2018 and have revisited some old favourites as well as test running some new entrants to the local restaurant scene. With the town growing rapidly…

Food 2018 – Hibiscus, Northampton
Friday, 13th April 2018 – Hibiscus, Northampton And so, knowing we would be out at the Errol Flynn Filmhouse later in the evening, we decided we’d have a second shot at Hibiscus, the fine dining restaurant (their words, not mine, but it is justifiable) tucked away inside the building. We’d booked in early with intent…
Food 2018 – Le Cigalon, London
Monday, 9th April 2018 – Le Cigalon, London Le Cigalon sent me an email inviting me to test drive their new 5 course menu for £29.50 a head (it’s normally £36.50 for 3 courses), which for central London is a massive bargain. Having discussed catching up over dinner with our friend Janice I asked her…
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 – 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…
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…
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,…
Food/Travel 2017 – Krakow, Day 4
Sunday December 3rd – Day 4, Krakow Sunday was the day we aimed to see the most famous painting in Krakow, Leonardo da Vinci‘s “Lady with an Ermine“, or as we had it “Lady with a Ferret”! She used to be on show at Wawel Castle, but is now securely lodged in the National Museum’s…
Food/Travel 2017 – Krakow, Day 3
Saturday December 2nd – Day 3, Krakow I started the day with a 5k run as Krakow has a parkrun of its own. Leaving Lynne in the lovely, warm apartment I headed out into the cold, layered up with every piece of running gear I had with me (vest, sweater, jacket, two head-protectors, gloves, the…
