How long is it since I had an apple strudel? Answer: too long. Such a delicious way to round off a great meal cooked by the young chefs @squarefoodfoundation. Terrible light though which doesn’t flatter it! . . . #apple #strudel #applestrudel #dessert #pastry #squarefoodfoundation #bristolFinally time to get my arse into gear this week and start thinking about Christmas, starting with a gorgeous wreath like this one from @lilyvioletmay. Also need to track down other Xmas decs which have mysteriously disappeared in some cupboard of doom (@deboradeclutters will NOT be impressed). Anyone else as disorganised as I am? #notprepared. . . . #christmasdecorations #wreath #christmaswreathThe surprise wine of the weekend - @trevibbanmill_vineyard’s Blanc de Blancs - extraordinary to get that depth of flavour from a brut nature in Cornwall. Thanks @resnathanoutlaw for the discovery. . . . #trevibbbanmill #sparklingwine #englishsparklingwine #fizz #bubbly #cornish #wineMahoosive platter of langoustines @ricksteinrestaurants last night - not *quite* as big as they appear here (accentuated by the angle) but pretty darn huge. . . #langoustines #seafood #shellfish #rickstein #padstowchristmasfestival Follow on Instagram
