One of my all-time favourite breakfast/brunch dishes is Eggs Benedict. Poached eggs sitting on roast ham, resting snugly on English Muffins and covered with hollandaise sauce.

Little Bay – Indian Tapas and Dining
Promises of exotic spice and Eastern delights did not disappoint…
Neapolitana
As some of you know I’ve recently been on holiday in Italy. Of course Italy is drenched in history and there are some quintessential Italian tourist spots that you can’t miss but when you start planning your trip you don’t realise that Italy is quite a large country! And with all things Italian – eating…
Foodie Weekend
Licking my lips, I alighted from the Heathrow Express at Paddington and made my way to the Southbank Centre to check out the Cheese and Wine Festival. Having arrived late-afternoon (I had just flown in from Gib!) I had missed the ‘food theatre’ and even though there were not many people jostling around the food…
El Capote – Chef Lede
I can’t wait for Ian to either email me or send me a text message letting me know about the next food and wine matching event at El Capote.

On my first night in Marrakech, I was tantalised by a beef and prune tagine. Tagine is the quintessential Moroccan dish. Tagine refers to the…
El Capote – Italiano
“Good company, good food and good wine!” That was the welcome and introduction that we received at El Capote’s 5th wine and food matching held Thursday 7th June. The theme for this evening’s dining experience was Italian. As pretty much everyone had already been to at least one of the previous four evenings, they knew the…
Asian Kitchen
When I was in Hong Kong back in 2005, one of my first meals was a Dim Sum lunch washed down with warm jasmine tea (check my “Oriental” post). Eating dim sum is known in Cantonese as “yum cha” (drinking tea 美味) as jasmine tea is traditionally drunk with this snack. Able (Rick’s fiancée) ordered dim…
