People occasionally ask me my favourite cheese - an impossible question but Vacherin Mont d’Or is certainly up there in the top 5.

Last week I was travelling back through France again and encountered a number of interesting matches but the one that worked best for me was in a modern bistro by the covered market in Besançon called La Table des Halles.

Good 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 #grangeUnfortunately not my breakfast today but two stellar brekkies I had this week @foxinncorscombe (eggs bacon and bubble and squeak) and @parador_44 (the grilled chorizo and bacon roll with piquillo ketchup). Love a good hotel breakfast. . . . #breakfast #brunch #eggs #bacon #chorizo #spicyketchup #bubbleandsqueak #foxinncorscombe #parador44 #guest Follow on Instagram
