I came across so many great wine pairings in Toronto last week it's hard to pick out one but this dish just shaves it as my match of the week.

What a way to kick off a meal: potato beignets with anchovy mayo and parmigiano reggiano. Then two exemplary main courses, cod and mussels with curried crab sauce (a bit like a mouclade) and pork schnitzel with brown butter capers and (more) anchovies. Not many restaurants have main courses that are as good as their starters but @1yorkplace_bristol is one of them. So lucky to have it as a local. . . . #beignets #cod #mussels #schnitzel #1yorkplace #clifton #bristol #bristolfoodLove a sommelier who has the boldness to recommend a red wine - @sabellifrisch’s Somers vineyard Mission - with a crab pasta. (Chips not with the pasta but my mate @fionasims Dover sole btw!) Good call @agustina.basilico! @toklas_london continues to be one of my favourite London restaurants. #guest on this occasion but I do go and spend my own money there 😉 #sommelier #redwine #mission #foodandwine #crab #pasta #toklas #londonrestaurantsDaffs. Nuff said.Having been out a lot lately I’ve been having a bit of a play in the kitchen this weekend but here’s the thing. I’ve been complaining that cookbooks only give recipes for four when most people I suspect cook for two. But is this a dish for 2 or 4? I’m inclined to think you need 2 chicken thighs per person but many would be satisfied with 1 and some might want 3. Appetites vary hugely plus it depends what else you’re serving. Anyway this - or a version of it will be in my recipes for 1 or 2 series on Substack. See link in biog for others. . . . #chicken #chorizo #rice #homecooking #portionsize Follow on Instagram
