Posted on September 5 2016 at 10:29

A reminder this week of just what a perfect match champagne and fried fish is - with a twist. The fish was one of the cheapest of catches, the humble sprat.

Brilliant book launch for @lickedspoon’s enchanting new cookbook Notes from a Small Kitchen Island. Here pictured with the lovely @en_croute and two of the recipes from the book I can’t wait to make - the potato, cheddar and spring onion rolls and the Gruyère and anchovy puffs. As is always the case with Debora’s writing, such a joyous read. . . . #booklaunch #cookbook #notesfromasmallkitchenisland #lickedspoon #sausagerolls #cheese #marseillanGood to see one of my favourite ever @honeyandco recipes - the fish pastilla - on the menu at their new Lamb’s Conduit Street home @honeyandcobloomsbury. Also the spring tabulé with cherries, the much instagrammed peach salad with goat’s cheese and what remained of the taramasalata with pickled red onion and chopped egg after we’d dived in. No room for cake, sadly. Will have to go back. (No great hardship there). . . . #pastilla #taboulé #peach #taramasalata #honeyandco #londonrestaurants #lunch #instafood #foodstagramI seriously think I could eat vitello - or pork - tonnato a couple of times a week at this time of year. It’s the most perfect summer food. Great bruschetta too. Always good to hang out @cottowinebarandkitchen and have a long overdue catch-up with @kate_hawkings. #bristollife . . . #vitellotonnato #tonnato #bruschetta #cotto #bristol #saturdaylunch #eatlocalTwo of the spectacular courses at the @penfolds lunch @trivetrestaurant today: grilled ribeye with herb purée and blackberry and pepper sauce with 1996 Grange and roast monkfish with girolles and red wine sauce with a 1962 - yes NINETEEN SIXTY-TWO - Kalimna Cabernet Shiraz. Amazing how the wines stood up to such deeply flavoured sauces devised with great skill by @jonny5lake without even having tasted the wines. Amazing meal #guest. . . . #steak #monkfish #redwine #redwinesauce #winepairing #foodandwine #penfolds #shiraz #grange Follow on Instagram
