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
