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…
Anna Mae’s Mac ‘N’ Cheese at the Southbank
I developed a real love for Mac N Cheese while I was living over in the States. Not quite an obsessive love, but the sort that prevents the ability to walk past a stall selling the stuff when I have reached that point where I am way past full already. Obsession or Gluttony? Probably both…

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…
Pieminister in Oxford at the Covered market
The Oxford Branch of Pieminister is located in amongst good foodie company inside the Covered Market in Oxford. There are not that many Pieminister locations, others are in Bristol, Stoke, London and in Amsterdam (surprising one that) but they do sell their pies to other outlets and pubs so you may get them elsewhere. This branch in the…
Atomic Burger in Oxford
Atomic Burger in Oxford is one of two Atomic Burger joints, (the other one is in Bristol). On their home page they tell us that ‘Atomic burger might just be the best blinking burger joint you will ever visit’ so I suppose we should just give them a whirl then. The Oxford joint is on…
Chestnut Meats – “The Goat Meat Specialists” – I am thinking must be time for … “Goat Curry!”
Today we are at home using some of the produce that I purchased at the Bakewell Farmers Market last month. I had bought some Goat Meat from the Chestnut Meats stall which came with a recipe for Goat Curry, so that is what we are having for Sunday Tea. Not your usual Sunday fare but…
