Posted on July 1 2011 at 08:41

Should it be wine or beer - or even a cocktail? Last year I asked the Twitter community what their favourite barbecue bevvy was and this is what they came up with . . .

@noahsbristol_ may be good for fish and chips - it is - but the razor clams are off the scale. A perfect place to go on these lovely light summer evenings too. . . . #clams #razorclams #fishandchips #noahsbristol #fishrestaurant #bristolfood #eatlocal #notanadBoth ends of a fabulous wine dinner @spring_ldn this week with wines from @domaine.hugo and veg from @fernverrow. Much more than a conventional wine dinner - a really insightful discussion about the philosophy of organic and biodynamic farming and viticulture. Absolutely loved this dish of salt-baked kohlrabi with herbs and fig-leaf oil and the honey custard tart with elderflower fritters that finished the meal. The wines were really amazing too #guest #winedinner #kohlrabi #custardtart #springrestaurantlondon #skyegyngell #foodandwine #eattheseasons #englishwineGenius idea from Ingrid of @dunleavyvineyards to label her Somerset rosé with images and QR codes from 5 different Bristol bands so you can tune in as you sip. I reckon I’d listen to @me_madly or @alexgardenmusic with it depending what mood I was in. #musicandwinepairing . . . #rosé #wine #englishwine #winelabel #somerset #bristolbands #bristol #presssample #notpaidtopostSun, sea and wine.
