*that* spider crab omelette @mountain.restaurant. You slice it down the middle and it falls open in all its glory. And the colour of the eggs …. Just amazing. More highlights in this week’s #friday5. Click link in bio. . . . #egg #omelette #crab #crabomelette #mountainrestaurant #sohoRabbit saltimbocca and the most divine creamy borlotti beans @toklas_london last night. Preceded by sea bass crudo. Such a lovely restaurant. Should go there more. . . . #rabbit #saltinbocca #beans #seabass #crudo #toklas #londonfoodThe most perfect autumn day, walking through the woods, collecting conkers . . . #autumn #conkers #fall #kentIs there anything better than a pie as a starter? Mini chicken and ham pies @theclifton_bristol’s incredibly buzzy Sunday night service. Where they run a short menu to clear the kitchen before they close for two days. 20% off drinks for customers who work in hospo too. Win win. Will miss you at the pass @williammrees #pie #pub #bristolfood #sundaynight #clifton Follow on Instagram
