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…

Food 2016 – Akasaka, Wolverton
Friday 30th September 2016 – Akasaka, Wolverton, Milton Keynes I like Japanese food as much as – OK, probably more than in some cases – the next person, so the fact that there’s one a 25 minute drive away from home makes me wonder why we don’t go rather more often. Anyway, having managed to…
Food 2016 – L’Autre Pied, London
Saturday, 28th May 2016 – L’Autre Pied, London Sometimes, just sometimes, there’s a Groupon offer that is just too good to turn down, and that makes going into London on a Saturday worth the effort. The offer of a tasting menu at two for the price of one at the one-Michelin starred l’Autre Pied was…
Food 2016 – Cameron’s Kitchen, Stony Stratford
Tuesday, 6th September 2016 – Cameron’s Kitchen, Stony Stratford An email in late August alerted me to the fact that one of my favourite eating places, Cameron’s Kitchen, in Stony Stratford was rolling out a new menu, with lots of starters/sharing plates, a small selection on more conventional meat, fish and vegetarian options, and a…
Food 2016 – Murrays, Whittlebury Hall
Friday, 2nd September 2016 – Murrays, Whittlebury Hall For reasons it’s hard to fathom we’ve never eaten at Whittlebury Hall bar the one occasion when we went to the Silson AC 35th Anniversary Dinner. I would argue that this does not count as it’s not fair to judge any restaurant on what is produced in…
Food 2016 – The Crooked Billet, Newton Longville
Saturday, 20th August 2016 – The Crooked Billet, Newton Longville, Milton Keynes We’d eaten at The Crooked Billet before (for a Burns Night Supper when there’d been a set menu) and had been meaning for some time to come back on a “normal” night, so a flying visit from a friend to collect a barbeque…
Food 2016 – Polpo, London
Sunday, 29th August 2016 – Polpo, Duke of York’s Square, London After failing to get any breakfast at all and spending the early part of the afternoon engaged in viewing Exhibitionism: The Rolling Stones at the Saatchi Gallery we were very hungry and for that matter thirsty. Emerging blinking into a somewhat grey afternoon we…
Food 2016 – The Braai Shack, Wolverton
Friday, 26th August, 2016 – The Braai Shack, Wolverton Just to prove it’s not all fine dining, Michelin Stars and Gault-Millau around these parts, last weekend we took a trip to the Braai Shack, a South African restaurant in one half of a pub in one of the shabbier bits of Milton Keynes, Wolverton. With…
Food 2016 – Rooftop Restaurant, Stratford-upon-Avon
Thursday, 25th August, 2016 – Ro On the back of a visit to the Royal Shakespeare Theatre in Stratford-upon-Avon to see Anthony Sher in King Lear (the second Lear of three in 2016 for us with Michael Pennington’s take at the Royal and Derngate Theatre already behind us and Glenda Jackson’s stage comeback still to…
Food 2016 – Cameron’s Kitchen, Stony Stratford
Friday, 19th August 2016 – Cameron’s Kitchen, Stony Stratford For some time now chef Dan Cameron , a Master Chef, The Professionals finalist, has been running his eponymous restaurant in a quiet corner of Stony Stratford, just on the edge of Milton Keynes. Rebranding from Cameron’s to Cameron’s Kitchen came after a fire all but…
