As the kids were off home straight after the New Year we jumped the gun by a few days with the last of the seasonal treats, a celebratory galette des rois. Traditionally eaten in France on the 6th of January (Twelfth Night) it celebrates the arrival of the three kings to visit the infant Jesus.

The poolside bar at @lidobristol is just the best kind of wine bar with a decent basic list and way above average, affordable bar food including this dish of porchetta with salsa verde and pumpkin caponata. (We drank the ever reliable Azevedo vinho verde.) One of the recommendations in my recently updated Bristol resto roundup on my Substack. (Click link in bio then search for Bristol) . . #lidobristol #winebar #porchetta #caponata #vinhoverde #eatlocal #bristolfoodGood to have the legendary @mayflowerbristol back in action again and packed out for the #chinesenewyear #bristolJust lovely to feel I was back in Mexico again yesterday @santoremedio_uk’s new restaurant in Marylebone. Particularly good ceviche but also tasty tacos, empanadas and pork pibil. #sunshineonaplate . . . #mexicanfood #tacos #ceviche #empanadas #marylebone #londonfood #newopening #guestWhen a friend brings a heaped bowlful of perfect mash to the table … To go with a big old pot of stew. (There was at one stage wine in that glass. Was just in the process of switching from white to red 😉) . . . #potato #mashedpotato #mash #beefstew #winterfood #eatingwithfriends #kitchensupper Follow on Instagram
