Despite the recent increase in interest in Mexican street food like tacos consumers in the UK still have to take to tequila (maybe because they’re too busy drinking gin) but in fact it’s an attractive and versatile spirit to pair with food

So many good things to eat @bouchonracine it’s very hard to choose what to go for. I nabbed the last tête de veau but then had major food envy about @signesjohansen’s skate in brown butter. Chicken liver pâté also spot on. Great service too. Almost as if the original Racine had never closed. . . . #skate #tetedeveau #chickenliverpate #bouchonracine #henryharris #farringdon #londonrestaurantsHave been dying to make @lickedspoon’s potato, cheddar and spring onion rolls since I got her book Notes from a Small Kitchen Island and they turned out to be the perfect tree decorating snack. . . . #sausagerolls #cheesepies #pastry #pieMagnificently large pork chop @guntonarms last night cooked over an open fire. Properly fatty and deliciously smoky. Don’t often order meat in a restaurant these days but that was irresistible. Could have fed two (well, maybe not …) . . . #pork #porkchop #grill #guntonarms #norfolkPhenomenal Belgian beers @the.portcullis #belgianbeerfestival with @jennychandleruk and Mr B. Mopped up with a hearty plate of beef stew and chips. Beers you don’t normally find here so nip round there tonight if you’re in #Bristol. . . . #beer #belgianbeer #stbernardus #westvleteren #vleteren #affligemtripel #pub #drinklocal Follow on Instagram
