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
