The loveliest of salads (fennel, peas, broad beans and pecorino) followed by boudin noir with spring veg (an unlikely but brilliant combination) last night at @cave.bristol. Top use of in season ingredients by @charliehearncooks. . . . #cave #winebar #bistro #gloucesterroadbristol #bristolfood #salad #boudin #springvegetables #eattheseasonsThe utter joy of Hockney’s paintings of the English and Normandy countryside showing in all their glory @fondationlv. Well worth the trip to Paris - not that I need much encouragement #theycantcancelspring #davidhockney #parisartMade this smoked trout, avo and asparagus salad yesterday. Designed for solo eaters, though you could obviously scale it up, it’s not only delicious but virtuously healthy and seasonal. Recipe coming shortly on Eat this, Drink That! . . . #salmon #avocado #asparagus #salad #healthyeatingMade my own set lunch menu @seahorse.restaurant Dartmouth yesterday, starting with a couple of oysters then 2 starters - a crab salad and a pitch perfect seafood risotto and finishing with a side (courgette fritti) instead of a pud. The beauty of eating on your own is that you can be as eccentric as you like.
