We Brits don't need much encouragement to eat pies. But which is the better match - wine or beer?

Have 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 #drinklocalSuper-delicate Dorset crab tart @wildhoneystjames last night which was paired with this extraordinarily deep-coloured vintage rosé champagne from @moetchandon. Brilliant menu (the confit chicken with ceps, macaroni and Parmesan was amazing with a 1998 from the grand vintage collection), extraordinary wines. You didn’t think Moet made this complex style of champagne? Nor did I tbh. And cheaper than DP - if you can get your hands on them! #guest . . . #champagne #vintagechampagne #rosechampagne #crab #moet #wine #instawine #winestagram Follow on Instagram
