Chinese tea on the face of it would seem the perfect drink to welcome in the Chinese New Year but it’s slightly more complicated than that as Lu Zhou and Timothy d’Offay of Postcard Teas explain.

Somewhat blurry low light photo but the second great pasta dish I’ve had this week, this time at the newly opened @marmo.restaurant: spinach and ricotta ravioli with sage and tomato. Good to have one of my favourite spaces in Bristol back again. . . . #restaurant #pasta #ravioli #ricotta #marmo #bristol #softopeningTwo of the courses at last night’s game dinner @theponyandtrap - a really good venison carpaccio with rocket and Old Winchester cheese and a lovely light crab salad with pickled turnip. Which the clever clogs among you will have spotted is not a game bird but as @josh_eggleton pointed out someone has to catch it 😉 Smart wine pairings too from @vinetrail - I loved the Augalevada Mercenario Blanco (an intensely mineral Spanish white) with the crab. #guest. . . . . #venison #carpaccio #crab #gamebirds #gamedinner #ponyandtrap #chewmagna #somerset #finediningThis macaroni cacio e pepe with deep-fried chicken wings is definitely among the top 10 things I’ve eaten this year. Reason enough to go back to @wildhoneystjames though there are some other great dishes too. . . . #pasta #macaroni #cacioepepe #chickenwings #comfortfood #lunch #wildhoneyWalking through the @denbies_wine_estate vineyards on a sunny afternoon doesn’t make you feel like you’re in Surrey. . . . #vineyard #vines #englishwine #denbies #surreyhills #instawine #winestagram #guest Follow on Instagram
