I have managed to get my hands on the Scotch Eggs from the Staffordshire Savoury Eggs company on just two occasions, both times in Bakewell at the monthly Farmers Market and at the Bakewell Food Festival. I wish I could sample their delightful wares more often but the circuit that they follow is just on…

A trip to the Bakewell Farmers Market
The Bakewell Farmers market is held on the last Saturday of the month and it is an event that is well worth putting in the diary. I have been here three times now since I returned from the states and I am already starting to have a list of favorite vendors and must buy…
Rick Stein’s India – Cooking the one pot wonder of Lamb Dopiaza
In common with many of you I was glued to Rick Stein‘s TV Series about India and took the first opportunity that I had to purchase a copy of the book that accompanied the series.

How a day trip to Lincoln ends up with a right Dog’s Dinner of meal!
Some time between 10.15am when we got on the train at Nottingham to Lincoln, and 17.12pm when we got on the train to return, it all went pear-shaped and it ended up being a right Dog’s Dinner. What am I talking about? Well it transpired that the Varsity Pub in Lincoln has a dish served…

Real Food Market at the Southbank
The Real Food Market is held every week on Friday to Sunday from January to December on the Southbank Centre Square, behind the Royal Festival Hall.

Jamie Oliver’s Diner Pop-up in London
Jamie Oliver’s Diner is on the corner at 23a Shaftsbury Avenue. Before we get going with this post lets be honest we are not supposed to take this as a serious fine dining experience it is just supposed to be a bit of fun. Since visiting I have seen a few somewhat cynical or perhaps…

Getting my “Mincespiration!” with Dean Edwards
I could not resist buying the new cookbook ‘Mincespiration’ from Dean Edwards. I almost did but then I started to flick through it in Asda and several recipes jumped out off the pages and cried out to my stomach “Try me!” Then my brain got involved and pointed out that ‘you do seem to buy a lot…
