This crisp white wasn’t chosen as an exact match more like a wine I thought would run along with everyone’s starters when we went out to lunch at The Bull in Totnes last week

Extraordinary to find a Picasso here, an El Greco there (not pictured, too excited) along with priceless Mediaeval art in the bodegas. Don’t remember this from my last visit but associating sherry with art is a good move I reckon especially when, like @bodegastradicion all your sherries are VORS (over 30 years old) and arguably old masters themselves. . . . #sherry #vors #art #picasso #paintings #artgalleries #jerez #copajerezI wouldn’t want you to get the impression I eat chips EVERY night of the week though this week’s insta certainly makes it look like it. Last night at @noahsbristol_ (look at that BATTER) along with some truly excellent tempura prawns. No it hasn’t escaped my notice that those were fried too but at least I shared them with @jessicabone. Really cracking cooking - another #bristol winner. . . . #chips #fishandchips #prawns #noahsbristol #seafood #bristolfood #eatlocalLove @freddybirdfood’s idea of a bar snack - deliciously smoky, herby lamb cutlets (to eat with your fingers) + a good dollop of Dijon mustard. Which we accompanied with very good frites and a glass of 2008 @domaine_tempier Bandol. Oh and we were #gifted a couple of prawn croquettes (paid for the rest). @littlefrench_bristol you get so much right 😍 . . #lambchops #chips #frenchfries #croquettes #bandol #domainetempier #finewine #barfood #bristolfood #littlefrench #bristolChicken’n’chips AND roasties @bebebob the new little brother of @bobbobricard. Also top notch chicken gravy. There may also have been champagne . . . #winnerwinnerchickendinner #guest . . . #chicken #roastchicken #rotisseriechicken #chickenandchips Follow on Instagram
