The tough task of pairing white truffles

Frankly if you can afford white truffles (currently selling at about 2500 euros per kilo) you probably already have a substantial cellar to pick from but just so you don’t in any way detract from the pleasure of eating your investment let me tell you what the Piedmontese do.

Many people say they don't like chardonnay but as anyone who has a taste for top white burgundy or other premium new world chardonnays will know it’s a spectacular food wine.

Dartmouth looks gorgeous even on a stormy day. Here talking about wine and hanging out with good friends for @dartmouthfoodfestival, one of my favourite events of the year. Come down if you’re nearby! . . . #dartmouth #river #boats #coast #devon #dartmouthfoodfestival #clouds #skyVery pretty plate of cured salmon @gezelliglnd last night, topped with burnt apple and Jerusalem artichoke chips. Why has no-one thought of giving cured - or smoked - salmon a crunchy topping before? . . . #salmon #curedsalmon #jerusalemartichoke #starter #gezellig #holbornstudiosIncredible meal at @ikoyi_london last night full of brilliant colours and African-inspired flavours I’ve never tasted before - a bit like when we first encountered New Nordic. It was hard to keep up with exactly what was going on on the plate but the vivid orange and black pumpkin dish (top R) used the flesh, seeds and skins - and a spoonful of Danish caviar on top. There is no menu - you just tell them if there’s anything you can’t eat and the 7 course menu costs £75. There’s a shorter cheaper menu at lunchtime when it’s also easier to get in. Extraordinary. Go! #guest. . . . #africanfood #finedining #londonrestaurants #ikoyipropertiesforsalePickle heaven @thepig_hotel. . . . #pickles #preserves #larder #pantry #instafood #foodstagram Follow on Instagram
