Tamarind and Thyme: Roti JohnRoti John – and how did this weird fusiony name come about? Well, the story goes that somewhere in Malaysia, a roti (bread) man put this together for some generic Western tourist (from what I read, all Caucasian men were just called John!) and...  
Trusted Gourmet: Meals at St Thomas’ Hospital, LondonMeals at St Thomas’ Hospital, London Lambeth, Greater London SE1 7, UK I have been away from this blog for almost two months! Time flies! The reason of this absence is the arrival of my beautiful baby daughter who has kept us very busy since... An American in London: Pizza and Pasta in RomeTwo weeks ago, Jon and I took my visiting-from-America parents to Rome for the first May bank holiday. We spent four sunny, warm days there, and because my parents aren’t keen on time-consuming, expensive meals, Rome was the perfect destination... 
The British Larder: Richardson’s Smokehouse Smoked Mackerel Spring Salad with Ham Cakes and Dill Crème FraicheThe inspiration for this dish came from our visit to Orford, Suffolk. It’s a beautiful sea side village with several smokehouses and the one that I love visiting every time is Richardson’s Smokehouse. It’s situated in a little alley, down...  
TomEatsJenCooks: London Notes: Part 4 - Bonnington Square(This is definitely not WC1 - Harleyford Road Gardens)Before I take Jen on her first trip to Paris this weekend I thought I would put up a new post in my goodbye to London series (others here) about Bonnington Square. If you haven't been,... 
coffeeratings: The Shot: A Winning Formula for Traditional EspressoIn recent months, The Atlantic — much like the New York Times — has shown a heightened interest in coffee. Most of it has come from articles penned by Starbucks co-founder, Jerry Baldwin. But today’s article comes from Giorgio Milos, Master... Evening Standard: Restaurants: Five places to eat that are open until the small hoursWhen youre hungry at the end of a night out in the West End, HK Diner hits the spot or Champagne breakfasts could seal the night at Vingt Quatre. Laissez Fare: Polpo – Sohopeful, So GoodA Venetian bacaro meets Lower East Side Manhattan bar, Polpo has a lovely buzzy atmosphere and relaxed but professional service in the middle of London’s Soho. The food is simple, with most dishes employing five ingredients or less, and is... TomEatsJenCooks: Restaurant Review: Pearl Liang in Paddington I love dim sum but I have never approached it in a structured way as I don't have the breadth of experience to be able to do so. I mean this is a cuisine that I have never eaten more than 15 times a year in my entire life. As with...  TomEatsJenCooks: How you go from Paris to Pancakes.We woke up this morning with post-Paris depression. Stumbling around the flat like zombies with bed head, we both had bad cases of holiday withdrawal. We spent the weekend in Paris bouncing from one high to the next. We shoved pretty much every... Evening Standard: Restaurants: Burgundy is in the blood at Bar BouludDespite spending nearly 25 years wowing New York society, Daniel Boulud has stayed true to his French culinary roots. His arrival in London should be a cause for celebration. 
Gourmet Chick: Gourmet Giveaway - Ottolenghi's new cookbookSo many people were interested in my review of Yotam Ottolenghi's new cookbook that the lovely publishers have agreed to give a copy away to one lucky reader.

Eat Noodles Love Noodles: Tapas y Fideuá @ La Rueda (Spanish), LondonI doubt very much if La Rueda on Clapham High St would have appeared on my radar but for the fact that it's one of the few places in London that serves up the Valencian noodle dish, fideuá. This tapas bar is more than a bit old fashioned with a...  
DOS HERMANOS: JW STEAKHOUSE: MISTAKENIs cooking a good steak really that difficult? Are there that many obstacles to getting a juicy slab o’ meat on your plate? In my world all you need is some decent, well-hung beef (huh huh huh…he said “hung”). It should be left to...  
Gin and Crumpets: Day 19, 9th day cooking, Ballymaloe Cookery SchoolI’ve never liked mushroom soup. The forrest floor flavour often surprises me by being nice, but the slimy, chewy, grainy texture that slops off the spoon like condensed catarrh makes me shudder and push my bowl away. However, mushroom soup was... 
Food Stories: Brunch a la PeckhamA weekend brunch is about chilling in the homestead; for me this is the most important time to be ducking in and out of local shops and showing some love for the hood. Anyway let’s face it, if your Friday nights are anything like mine you... bellaphon: Sichuan RestaurantCame here not too long ago and had a wonderful evening with the following: the über intelligent Kake, ‘for she has no foes’ Su-Lin, Mr Genial aka Ewan, a couple of friends from RGL; James and Marna and lest I forget the redoubtable Mr... Evening Standard: Restaurants: A Bite Out In London - City Café in WestminsterIt is worth popping into the City Café after a trip to one of the nearby tourist attractions. London Eater: The Hind’s Head, Bray: Say hello to the little Fat Duck.Paradoxically tempered tea, univalved porridge and nitro-blasted savoury puddings have no place in Heston Blumenthal’s rather quaint, rather modest pub, situated just next to The Fat Duck. This true-to-its-roots establishment can trace its... |
