Madame Fabuleuse: A Scotch Eggstravaganza.

http://madamefabuleuse.blogspot.com/2011/10/scotch-eggstravaganza.html

Chorizo-spiced pork scotch eggs. My husband loves scotch eggs. 8220;proper home-made scotch eggs” he tells me “are a delight” and far, far removed from the things I was used to sampling on bad cocktail party platters. I think he likes them as they remind him of his favourite pub in the world, The All Nations, Madeley in Shropshire. Where they only have 3 things on the food menu (raw black pudding sandwich, pork pie and scotch egg). Ingredients for my duo of Scotch Eggs. 1 tbsp sweet smoked paprika. Remov...

Food & Wine Finds: December 2011

http://foodandwinefinds.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html

Food and Wine Finds. Tuesday, December 20, 2011. Beerd, Bristol - the new face of pubs? If you were going to open a new business would you send up your potential customers? Calling a beer bar Beerd and - cheekier still - getting your waitresses to wear T shirts with 'beerdy weirdy' on the back seems a high risk strategy akin to calling a new nail salon Chavs. Especially if some of your punters are not noted for their sense of humour. Friday, December 16, 2011. My top 10 books for Christmas. My bookshelve...

All The Motor Vehicles I Have Ever Owned. This blog will catalogue my motoring history, for no better reason than motorcycling was the reason I do what I do. Monday, 16 April 2012.

Food & Wine Finds: Time to move on!

http://foodandwinefinds.blogspot.com/2012/05/time-to-move-on.html

Food and Wine Finds. Thursday, May 10, 2012. Time to move on! Since I've revamped my website matchingfoodandwine.com. I've decided to rationalise my blogs and this one, I'm afraid, has become redundant. We'll also be having regular competitions on the site. There's a cracking one to kick off with* to celebrate the relaunch which gives you the chance to win a case of Louis Roederer champagne. So make sure to check that one out! Until June 5th 2012). August 2, 2012 at 2:54 PM. This blog has moved.

Food & Wine Finds: Why Scandi women don't get fat

http://foodandwinefinds.blogspot.com/2012/04/why-scandi-women-dont-get-fat.html

Food and Wine Finds. Sunday, April 15, 2012. Why Scandi women don't get fat. Yesterday's EatScandi brunch, run by my friend Signe Johansen, revealed the devious way Scandinavian women avoid putting on weight. The answer is to start healthily - well quite healthily, if you opted for the non-alcoholic Bloody Mary*, but needless to say I didn't - followed by a 'Green Goddess'*, a bracing concoction of cucumber, mint, ginger and apple juice and a raspberry, vanilla and ginger smoothie*. So that's the Scandi ...

Food & Wine Finds: Manna and Bravas

http://foodandwinefinds.blogspot.com/2012/04/manna-and-bravas.html

Food and Wine Finds. Sunday, April 22, 2012. Manna and Bravas may sound a bit like an upmarket deli (or a '70s pop duo) but these are in fact the names of two separate wine bars that have opened in Bristol in the last two weeks. And what a great addition they are to the Bristol restaurant scene. I was going to go back before writing about it but last night happened to be the opening night of Manna. A similar set-up in the Westbury Park neighbourhood so it makes sense to group them together. It’...This ki...

Food & Wine Finds: A tale of two restaurants: why good food is not enough

http://foodandwinefinds.blogspot.com/2012/04/tale-of-two-restaurants-why-good-food.html

Food and Wine Finds. Friday, April 6, 2012. A tale of two restaurants: why good food is not enough. I’ve had two meals recently, one in Bristol, one in Bath that have underlined why ability in the kitchen doesn’t necessarily make for an enjoyable restaurant experience. Of course you need good food but there are so many other factors - design, location, service and above all, good old-fashioned hospitality that determine whether you leave looking forward to going back again. Obviously the economic situati...

Food & Wine Finds: June 2011

Food and Wine Finds. Thursday, June 30, 2011. How to cook Chioggia beets without losing the stripes. I came across Chioggia beets at our farmers' market in Bristol yesterday, pink stripey beetroot that the producer was so proud of he'd cut open to display. There was one bunch left which I was just about to buy when a woman shot up and said 'I'll have those'. Fortunately the stallholder still gave them to me, narrowly avoiding an unseemly scrap. Then rinsed them and dressed them with a couple of spoonfuls...

Food & Wine Finds: March 2012

http://foodandwinefinds.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html

Food and Wine Finds. Friday, March 16, 2012. 5 reasons why the River Cafe is still one of London's best restaurants. I had lunch at The River Café. This week. I wouldn't normally say that because I find it hard to justify spending that amount of money on a meal but this month (and during late January and February for future reference) they have a winter set lunch offer where you can get 2 courses for £25 and £35 for four. Normally a main course alone will set you back £32-£36. The cooking makes no attemp...
