The best wine pairings with meatballs

The best wine pairings with meatballs

Meatballs are essentially comfort food so you don’t want to drink anything too fancy with them but you do need something equally delicious - usually red in my book

I agonised over whether this should be the standout pairing from this marvellous Lebanese meal at Arabica last week but it won by just a whisker.

Ended a particularly indulgent week’s eating with a perfectly cooked whole turbot @littlefrench_bristol (not just for me I hasten to say) Served with a gorgeous buttery dill hollandaise, new potatoes AND chips. Just insanely good @freddybirdfood. I could live in littlefrench and in fact almost do. . . . #fish #turbot #hollandaise #littlefrench #bristolSomewhat blurry low light photo but the second great pasta dish I’ve had this week, this time at the newly opened @marmo.restaurant: spinach and ricotta ravioli with sage and tomato. Good to have one of my favourite spaces in Bristol back again. . . . #restaurant #pasta #ravioli #ricotta #marmo #bristol #softopeningTwo of the courses at last night’s game dinner @theponyandtrap - a really good venison carpaccio with rocket and Old Winchester cheese and a lovely light crab salad with pickled turnip. Which the clever clogs among you will have spotted is not a game bird but as @josh_eggleton pointed out someone has to catch it 😉 Smart wine pairings too from @vinetrail - I loved the Augalevada Mercenario Blanco (an intensely mineral Spanish white) with the crab. #guest. . . . . #venison #carpaccio #crab #gamebirds #gamedinner #ponyandtrap #chewmagna #somerset #finediningThis macaroni cacio e pepe with deep-fried chicken wings is definitely among the top 10 things I’ve eaten this year. Reason enough to go back to @wildhoneystjames though there are some other great dishes too. . . . #pasta #macaroni #cacioepepe #chickenwings #comfortfood #lunch #wildhoney Follow on Instagram
