The 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 #canterburyFabulously glamourous meal in the @thesavoygrill wine room last night with theatrical plating up of the main course (lamb rack and saddle) by the kitchen team. Accompanied by a superb bottle of @chateaulynchbages 1990 that couldn’t have been a better match. So good to catch up with the lovely @thierrytomasin too. Thanks @clementinecommunications for a very special pre-Christmas treat. . . . #savoygrill #gordongram #roastlamb #bordeaux #pauillac #lynchbages #winedinner #foodandwine #guestNot the most brilliant photo but 3 stunning small plates in the bar at @lidobristol last night: slow-cooked cauliflower with Aleppo chilli and walnut butter, beetroot borani and winter squash caponata with pinenuts. Great place for a light supper. . . . #bristolfood #lidobristol #cauliflower #beetroot #squash #caponata #vegetarian Follow on Instagram
