Thanks @marinagpoloughlin for the tip-off that the wonderful @tomnd.c.a.l.e (ex Great Queen Street) is back on the food scene masterminding the menu @cafemission.e1. It’s a largely plant-based menu including this addictive Mysore style set dosa with pumpkin sabji and coconut chutney with the occasional fish and meat dish thrown in like this @chalk_stream trout and prawn cocktail . Fresh, healthy, well-priced food served in a lovely light airy room - or the terrace outside if it’s fine which let’s face it it rarely is at the mo. (Although it’s supposed to be warming up next week) Welcome back Tom! . . . #dosa #pumpkin #trout #prawncocktail #cafemission #tomnorringtondavies #spitalfields #guestNormally I always order the pasta @sonnystores but the fennel, potato and taleggio bake sounded too good to resist and was just 💥. As was the perfect pumpkin and cuttlefish fritto. Part of the ridiculously well priced £25 set lunch with delicious accompanying AF cordial from @pasettiandboote. One of my favourite places in Bristol. . . . #potato #fennel #taleggio #frittomisto #sonnystores #bristolfood #bristolfoodieEtna looking pretty gloomy and stormy but fortunately not in the process of erupting. Plus already nearly ripe nerello mascalese grapes in one of @donnafugatawine’s Etna vineyards. Normally they wouldn’t be harvested till the second half of October. . . . #etna #vineyards #winegrapes #nerellomascalese #donnafugata #presstripOn the amazing island of Pantelleria with @donnafugatawine. These old zibibbo (great name for a grape variety) vines produce the grapes that go to make their famous sweet wine Ben Ryé. . . . #grapes #vines #vineyard #pantelleria #sweetwine #zibibbo #donnafugata #presstrip Follow on Instagram
