Beaujolais - by which I mean red Beaujolais - is the most French of wines, the perfect wine pairing for a picnic or bistro meal.

With southern hemisphere wines from the 2024 vintage already hitting the shelves the annual release of Beaujolais Nouveau has become less significant than it once used to be but it’s still a fun occasion to mark.

Lovely to see that old Soho still exists. The Academy club above @andrew.edmunds with food from the kitchen downstairs. Plus their stellar winelist. Got a bit of a look for bringing out my phone to snatch these sneaky shots so didn’t push my luck FYI I ate lamb with turnips and drank a Lirac …. . . #andrewedmunds #soho #restaurantinterior #menu #winelist #londonfoodMy Christmas cookbook gift guide is out, written as usual from the perspective of which book will suit which family member not which books are the best of the year. Though there are many of my own favourites there. A LOT of plant-based books this year which I always find a bit of a mystery given only around 11% of the population is veggie and a smaller percentage still vegan. Only @timhayward’s admirable Steak is dedicated - daringly - to meat. Link in bio. Links in the roundup are to @bookshop_org_uk not Amazon which benefits local bookshops although you could always pop into your local and get them to order in at least one of the ones you want, couldn’t you? 😉 . . . #cookbook #booklovers #bookshopThe old and new faces of the @guardian wine column. So pleased and proud to see this very talented young writer taking over. Go @hannahcrosb! . . . #hannahcrosbie #wine #winewriter #guardianFirst Christmas pud of the year @thecornerhousecanterbury and a very stylish (and delicious) one it was too. Plus an absolutely exemplary gratin dauphinoise* (served with the gorgeously sticky fall-apart slow roasted lamb shoulder). Thoroughly nice place, short sensible menu, not trying too hard to reinvent the wheel. Hooray. * definitely up there in the top 10 potato dishes @mrvinosaurus . . . #christmaspudding #lamb #gratindauphinoise #thecornerhouse #canterbury Follow on Instagram
