Today is International Grenache Day, a celebration of a grape which is (often anonymously) responsible for some of the most generous and appealing reds in the wine world.

Whenever anyone talks about foods that are difficult to match with wine, asparagus always comes up but I reckon the problem is overstated.

Aubergine - or eggplant as it’s called in the US - doesn’t have a strong flavour of its own but tends to enrich any dish in which it’s included especially when baked with tomatoes and cheese.

Dartmouth looks gorgeous even on a stormy day. Here talking about wine and hanging out with good friends for @dartmouthfoodfestival, one of my favourite events of the year. Come down if you’re nearby! . . . #dartmouth #river #boats #coast #devon #dartmouthfoodfestival #clouds #skyVery pretty plate of cured salmon @gezelliglnd last night, topped with burnt apple and Jerusalem artichoke chips. Why has no-one thought of giving cured - or smoked - salmon a crunchy topping before? . . . #salmon #curedsalmon #jerusalemartichoke #starter #gezellig #holbornstudiosIncredible meal at @ikoyi_london last night full of brilliant colours and African-inspired flavours I’ve never tasted before - a bit like when we first encountered New Nordic. It was hard to keep up with exactly what was going on on the plate but the vivid orange and black pumpkin dish (top R) used the flesh, seeds and skins - and a spoonful of Danish caviar on top. There is no menu - you just tell them if there’s anything you can’t eat and the 7 course menu costs £75. There’s a shorter cheaper menu at lunchtime when it’s also easier to get in. Extraordinary. Go! #guest. . . . #africanfood #finedining #londonrestaurants #ikoyipropertiesforsalePickle heaven @thepig_hotel. . . . #pickles #preserves #larder #pantry #instafood #foodstagram Follow on Instagram
