And we’re back at Butler’s Wharf again, this time it’s at All Bar One for drinks.And not really surprisingly the balmy evening has been replaced by one a little greyer and cooler, it really isn’t necessary to break out the sunglasses.The out-of-towners have booked a table at Pont de la Tour and a few others enquire about decent local restaurants and I point them in the other direction towards Blueprint Café, though I am jealous and hungry so I need to leave and find my own delicious dinner.However as often happens with the best laid plans of mice and hungry men, they cut off at the pass by in this case flame-haired H and encouraged to linger longer. The fabulous smells wafting around us from either side convinces me that action needs to be taken and I order an old All Bar One favourite – gammon, egg & chips.Of course being in such a little gastronomic haven it does seem a little of a poor substitute but actually gammon and eggs is a marriage made in heaven so it’s not too much of a sacrifice.And it filled the gap nicely!
EATS, COOKS & BLOGS
The random ramblings of a self confessed foodie diva gathering all tasty morsels of food related trivia and regurgitating them for your delectation.
Less of a weblog more of a grublog!
Bon appetit!

Food, like a loving touch or a glimpse of divine power, has that ability to comfort.
Enchant, stay beautiful and graceful, but do this, eat well. Bring the same consideration to the preparation of your food as you devote to your appearance. Let your dinner be a poem, like your dress.
I wish you a merry Christmas, I wish you a merry Christmas, I wish you a merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
One cannot think well, love well, sleep well, if one has not dined well
Cooking is like love, it should be entered into with abandon or not at all
Here's to another year of eating fabulously!
They dined on mince, and slices of quince, which they ate with a runcible spoon
Bear in mind that you should conduct yourself in life as at a feast
Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Christmas is coming, the goose is getting fat
'tis the season to be jolly, tra la la la la... la la la la
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire, Jack Frost nipping at your nose...
Dine we must and we may as well dine elegantly as well as wholesomely
Full of mellow fruitfulness
Melting in your mouth and not in your hand!
Eating the Big Apple, one bite at a time
(Not always about mash!)
It's tasty, tasty very very tasty! It's very tasty!
