Review – Byron Burger – Charing Cross Road
Pricy & average beefy burgers We visited yesterday late afternoon for a post drinking, pre theatre filler.

Staff were friendly and polite and again service was nice and…
Recipe – Chipotle beef brisket and chuck chilli
This chilli is an ever evolving recipe so I am going to give you what I call my base recipe which is more than decent enough as a stand alone chilli, and it’s also easy enough to triple or quadruple for a crowd or also freezing for those easy midweek meals. Most classic chilli…

Creamy cider, garlic and thyme mussels
It’s been a while since my last post mainly due to having had a week’s break from work renovating the garden and a cheeky trip to Goudhurst in Kent for a long weekend. I had the pleasure of benefiting from my wife’s Christmas present which was a vineyard, orchard and winery tour at the beautify…
Pulled buffalo chicken quesadillas with melty blue cheese
For those who know me and those of you don’t, I have an unhealthy obsession with chicken wings…. Wherever I go if they are on the menu then they will form part of my order. Whether this is Chinese, Indian or a greasy burger joint I have to have them, but my all-time favourite and…
Crispy roast duck, duck fat roasted potatoes, honey glazed Chantenay carrots, garlic green beans with a sweet plum sauce
