***Mid-Week Recipe Ready in 15mins***
Mackerel divides opinions - I love it for its rich flavour and Omega 3 fattiness, though many find these very qualities not to their palate. You can make these work for you though in this recipe with an umami-laden, lightly sweet and tangy glaze of soy sauce, balsamic vinegar and honey. The contrast works a treat, a quick mid-week dinner ready in 15 mins!
GRILLED MACKEREL IN SOY SAUCE & BALSAMIC GLAZE
- 4 mackerel fillets, pin-boned, skin on
- 2 tbsp EVOO
- 1 garlic clove, crushed
- Freshly ground black pepper
For soy & balsamic glaze:
- 60ml Japanese soy sauce
- 60ml balsamic vinegar
- 60ml dry white wine
- 20g honey
- 30g unsalted butter, room temperature
1. Pin bone fillets, score skin, season with EVOO, garlic & pepper.
2. Make the glaze by adding all the ingredients expect the butter to a small pan, stir well, bring to boil, reduce by 1/3 until syrupy, add butter & mix to emulsify, turn off the heat.
3. Grill the mackerel for 3-5min or until flesh is cooked through and skin is blistered.
4. Top mackerel with soy & balsamic glaze and serve.
***SAVE*** this recipe, grab some mackerel fillets on your next supermarket visit, and try this out, most of the other ingredients are store cupboard essentials which you should already have.

On our last Autumn supper club date on Saturday night, while having a few post-service drinks with the volunteers, it dawned on me I had not got out of the house since Wednesday morning when I came in with the week’s food shopping! I had welcomed and fed over 100 diners that week on their night out, but forgotten to get a bit of fresh air myself, ah the joys of WFH!
So I made a mental note to get-out more 😂 and so glad we headed to in Haggerston today - I admit, it is just a 10-min walk from me down Regent’s Canal on Kingsland Road, so a neighbourhood resto, and what a find!
We loved the Japanese flavours in ‘s cooking - kicking off with their now legendary Japanese Milk Bread with white miso & mushroom butters (£7.50), it was soft, fluffy & sweet covered in a delectable honey, butter & sea salt glaze, delish!
Next up, we had a fab Japanese inspired steak tartare (£14) with soy mayo, sesame, shiso and cep crackers.
But the star ⭐️ starter was the brined and smoked sea bass (£13), with fennel, apple, salted radish & sesame milk. *THAT* sesame milk was the nectar of gods - with dashi, soy and sesame, it was brimming with flavour.
Confit salmon (£32) with autumnal vegetables including fig, radicchio, & Jerusalem artichoke, had also confit egg yolk and a lip-smacking juniper beurre blanc.
Pork belly with a teriyaki glaze (£30) was incredibly soft, one could eat it with a spoon, served with a crispy potato terrine, and a side of hispi cabbage, coco beans & prawns.
Plums, Sichuan ice cream, lemon cake £11 was a divine dessert as was the chocolate cremeux, miso caramel, hazelnuts, pear & cocoa nibs £12 - the kind of desserts worth every single one of their calories!
Wines start at £45, we chose an American Riesling by Firestone, Santa Barbara, California 2021 (£65), it had citrus and mineral on the nose, rich, long and concentrated on the palate.
There is a set menu of £45 pp, served for lunch and dinner, for 3 courses, or £70pp with wine or sake pairing. There is also a 6 course set menu with wine or sake pairing at £110 pp. Highly recommended!

15/11/2024

Looking puffy and a tad grubby but feeling very grateful for all the amazing care I received from everyone at the Hospital in London.
I am lucky the is my local hospital and over the years I have had both of my hips replaced in 2018 & 2020 and now 2024 plate & pins removed from a not-so perfect surgery in Sumatra, Indonesia in 2022 when I fell while trekking and fractured my wrist. So incredibly grateful that the NHS could put this right!
These experiences at the were very humbling to me - I have always been amazed and touched by the care, kindness and good humour I encountered here from all the nursing and healthcare staff - these guys work so hard and do such an amazing job.
I had healthcare staff from all over the world helping me - some lovely folk from Spain, the Philippines, West Africa, Malaysia, South Asia and more.
It saddens me to hear that a lot of Brits feel that immigration has not benefited this country, though judging by my experiences in the last few years , the NHS would not exist without the wonderful contribution from all these foreign labourers.
The very last person I spoke to was from the Philippines. She kindly waited with me until could pick me up at the reception desk, she told me that she’d been in the UK for just a year, she was finding it really hard as she missed her son, her family and the Philippines very much. How incredibly amazing I thought that someone would give up so much to come and help us here. A BIG thank you from me! 🙏

07/03/2023

Innovative dumpling restaurants & have gone the extra mile by not only offering a few vegan & veggie options, but rather, introducing an entirely NEW vegan & vegetarian menu, we simply had to check it out.
PIC 1 – from the veg menu, our favourite dumplings were:
🥇– Vegan bun was fluffy and light, filled with carrot, cabbage, water chestnut & truffley Chinese 🥟mushroom (£5.90);
🥈– Mushroom green curry dumpling had chilli, bamboo shoot and tofu (£5.90), and was delicately spicy;
🥉– Black pepper tofu dumpling was equally delicious and spicy with edamame bean and carrot (£5.90).
🥟 – Curry potato bun (£5.90), we were tempted by the double-carbs here but to us, it lacked a kick of curry flavour.
And then on to our favourites & must-orders from their regular menu:
PIC 2 – 🐷 Salt & pepper spare ribs, pepper, garlic, chilli (£8.90), these are possibly the best Chinese ribs in London, so so good.
PIC 3 – 🍜 Dan Dan noodles topped with minced pork, sesame sauce, chilli oil, Sichuan peppercorn (£12.50) – fiery and full of flavour, this is a dish we always order at Baoziin. They now have a vegan version of this using pickled mustard greens instead of pork.

PIC 4 – 🍤 Gong bao prawn stir-fried with cashew nuts, Sichuan peppercorns and chilli (£18.90) had a great freshness, spicy heat and aroma from the Sichuanese peppercorns.
PIC 5 – 🍚 King prawn fried egg rice with sweetcorn, carrot, and spring onion (£13.90) had plenty of wok-breath, it was gentle yet beautifully seasoned.
PIC 6 – The entire veg menu in all its glory.
I only scraped the surface of ’s new veg menu, so can’t wait to go back and try more of the other options, if only I could resist their & 😂

‘Patience’ & ‘Luck’ are 2 attributes that epitomise the Chinese New Year of the Rabbit. And heaven knows, we need both in abundance in 2023!
So to up my chances here & ring in the CNY in style, I made a beeline for the iconic in Hanway Place. This year’s 8-dish menu is IMHO the best one yet since I first visited in 2001:
PIC 1 - Auspicious ‘Lo Hei Prosperity Toss’ octopus salad, w/ yuzu plum sauce, pomelo, carrot & shiso was refreshing, light & wonderfully textured.
PIC 2 – ‘Happiness’ dim sum trio – (1) glorious seafood dumpling (2) XO scallop & prawn shumai (3) rabbit carrot puff were exquisitely made, super fresh & light.
PIC 3-4 - Cherrywood smoked roasted duck, carrot & kumquat chutney came in a dramatic smoke-filled glass dome. Ultrafine crackling skin & tenderest duck were simply heavenly w/ the sweet astringency of kumquat.
PIC 5 - Steamed John Dory w/ enoki & okra was again spot on. I loved the fish but it was the mouth-watering combo of brown butter & black bean that made up its luscious sauce that transformed the dish.
PIC 6 - Stir-fried Wagyu beef, nian gao (CNY sweet rice cakes), shimeji & golden squash was another highlight. Those buttery morsels of Wagyu were sensational w/ a hint of Sichuanese pepper.
PIC 7 - Treasure ‘Poon Choi’ is a traditional CNY Cantonese one pot, multi-layered dish that signifies abundance & prosperity – here w/ fat choi, lotus root & seed, stuffed bamboo pith, smoked tofu, shiitake mushroom, this was rich & w/ wonderfully earthy flavours.
& beetroot-fragrant rice, sweetcorn, fried shallot – light & delicious, wa treat w/ the more substantial courses.
PIC 9 - The Lucky Rabbit was an exquisite dessert of black sesame mousse w/ raspberry compote & sumac sorbet, accompanied by a Tuzi Tail, a heady cocktail of Hennessy XO Cognac, carrot, lemongrass & white chocolate foam (£28).
PIC 10 – So what do you wish for in this CNY of the Rabbit beyond the obligatory AirFryer? 😂
’s CNY menu is avail. until 07/02/23 & is priced at £128pp excl drinks.

Magnifique & refreshingly affordable French cooking by Chefs Chris & Jeff Galvin. We had many of the French classics on the menu & we were so HAPPY:
PIC 1 - Roast rump of lamb, asparagus, morels in green sauce (£33) was perfectly cooked, pink, soft and delicious.
PIC 2 – From the appetizers section (Petites Assiettes) we had the fabulous, Tarte Flambée Alsacienne (£9.50), paper thin pastry topped with crème fraiche and bacon lardons. This was one of the highlights of our dinner, a must order.
PIC 3 – The creamiest of mushroom croquettes with aioli and shavings of Parmesan (£6).
PIC 4 – For starters, super fresh and plump ½ dozen Porthilly Oysters served with shallot vinegar, bread & condiments (£18).
PIC 5 – A meaty and sweet terrine of rabbit, bacon and prune served with celeriac remoulade & pickles (£10.50).
PIC 6 – Our 2nd main was the house rib-eye steak with frites & Beurre Maître D’hôtel (£35). I simply cannot “not” order steak & frites in a French bistrot, and I was glad I did as ’s was a very fine specimen!
PIC 7 – A medley of roasted carrots (£4.50) to accompany was all we needed without bursting at the seams.
PIC 8 - Apple Tarte Tatin with Crème Fraîche (£8) was as good as it gets on the flavour front though on presentation, I’d’ve preferred mine as a whole mini-version rather than a slice of a larger tarte.
PIC 9 - Lemon posset, blackberries, vanilla shortbread (£7) was creamy, tart and refreshing. Posset is one of my go-to desserts at home, easy to prepare yet so satisfying. My kind of cooking.
PIC 10 – The restaurant has its own Rasteau label, ‘Galvin Rasteau 2019’ from Domaine La Soumade in Rhone (£49). A blend of Grenache, Syrah and Mourvedre, which worked a treat with our meal.

Where do I even start with ? We simply LOVED our Portuguese meal there. *Save* this post + GO to if only for their ‘garlic prawns’ in an exquisite bisque-like sauce so good I couldn’t stop grinning, trust me, you will thank me. Our meal in its entirety:
PIC 1 – Garlic Prawns (Gambás a la Guilho £15.50) – grilled, meaty prawns in a sensational sauce, do have plenty of bread to mop up every bit of it!
PIC 2 – 3 fab Petiscos (small eats) - veg tempura w/ (£6.50), croquettes de Alheira Portuguese sausage (£7) & salt cod fritters (Pataniscas de Bacalhau £7).
PIC 3 - Sea Bass & Mussel Feijoada (£15) was another highlight – slow-braised white beans (feijao) & mussels topped w/ a crispy seabass fillet. So good.
PIC 4 - Bacalhau à Brás (£8.50) - ‘Coz it ain’t a Portuguese meal if you haven’t ordered bacalhau, so trust me again and order this beauty of shredded salt cod, potatoes & eggs.
PIC 5 - Pork Neck & Bifana Sauce (Porco com Molho de Bifana £13). The Bifana is Portugal’s iconic sandwich made of slivers of pork dripping in sauce, served in a baguette. The sauce is made from the juices the pork is cooked in, w/ vinegar, garlic & tons of paprika. ’s was a sophisticated version of the Bifana yet delicious & sans carbs.
PIC 6 - Duck Rice w/ Crispy Skin (Arroz de Pato Malandrinho £15) – as scrumptious as it sounds, how could I say no to duck rice?
PIC 7 –’s cheese selection (£13) came w/ homemade tomato jam & bickies, the cheeses were all Portuguese and made from raw sheep, goat & cow’s milk.

PIC 8 - Obligatory Pastel de Nata w/ cinnamon ice cream (£5) + Abade de Priscos Pudim (£7), a rich Portuguese crème caramel made from tons of egg yolk & pork (!). A real treat w/ Churchill’s 10 year-old tawny (£10).

PIC 9 – Churchill’s White Port Tonic (£8) + a few glasses of vinho from ’s extensive Portuguese wine list, defo got us in the mood.

PIC 10 – The amazing Executive Head Chef Nelza Leal who v patiently answered all my Portuguese foodie questions during a busy service. The chef’s counter is the place to be folks!

An exquisite meal , their 6-course tasting menu at £70pp is a real gem. At a time in London when any bit of raw fish in lime juice claims to be a ‘Ceviche’, ’s menu took me right back to my travels in Peru and reminded me of the real deal. The 6-course menu in all its glory:
PIC 1 – Hand-Dived Scallop Tiradito - gorgeously presented in a rich Parmesan tiger’s milk, plantain purée & coriander. Wow.
PIC 2 - Otoro Tuna Nikkei – so happy to see a Nikkei entry on the menu! Charcoal black shiso tempura topped with raw tuna, shichimi mayo, micro red amaranth & lime was so good.
PIC 3 - Ceviche Clasico - stone bass (corvina) in a super vibrant, mouth puckering tiger’s milk with choclo corn, sweet potato, red onion & red chilli. Just how it should be!
PICS 4-5 – Octopus & Prawn Causa a la Mesa – seafood with Botija olives, a sweet, acidic & savoury Cervichera sauce of mayo & lime, avocado, tobiko caviar & tomato topped with a Causa of yellow Peruvian potato & Aji Amarillo, pressed at the table.

PIC 6 - Secreto Iberico Pork a la Brasa – tender & creamy Iberico pork cooked in a charcoal oven served with Andean purple tubers, topped with a Peruvian Tari Sauce (mayo, coriander, lemon juice, Aji Amarillo) and finished with a dusting of smoky Aji Panca powder.

PIC 7 - Pear – poached and served with purple corn, pineapple & a refreshing lime sorbet. All good although at the end of a sensational tasting menu we were crying out for some carbs e.g. Picarones (wink-wink).
PIC 8 - My top rec is to go for the £35pp wine pairing option. I normally steer clear of pairing options as they’re not great VFM, but ’s was excellent value & really elevated our meal. Kicking off with Peru’s national cocktail Pisco Sour (which on its own is £12) this was followed by 5 glasses of great Peruvian, Spanish & French wines. If you’re on a dry month, still or sparking water is only £2 per head with unlimited refills.
PICS 9-10 – the very elegant décor .

Good morning from and me from a freezing Mount Bromo, East Java! A couple of hours by jeep from Malang, Mount Bromo and its volcanic crater were among the highlights of my two months in Indonesia. A bummer to get to but I am so glad we made it.
The excursion starts at midnight from Malang, and lasts for about 10 hours for the incredible sunrise views, hiking to the top of the crater and exploring the surrounding plateau before the sun gets unbearably hot (by 8am).

PIC 1 - Josper grilled meats including my beloved Picanha and a 7-day aged Koji ribeye, all perfectly medium rare for the Butcher’s Table !
In addition to the sumptuous Indonesian, Japanese & Western buffets, you will also find here:
PIC 2 - Succulent grilled bone marrow and toasties;
PIC 3 - Wagyu sliders - meltingly tender with a velvety mouth feel, served with Parmesan crisps;
PIC 4 - Beef Wellington, the fillet wrapped in nori rather than traditional pancake, then a layer of chicken mousse before being encased in puff pastry;
PICS 5-7 - Japanese Bar serving freshly prepared sushi & sashimi, tempura and Wagyu tamagoyaki (Japanese omelette);
PIC 8 - Steak tartare from a dinky trolley on wheels, featured hand chopped beef, served a la minute at the table with all the trimmings, including a sprinkling of black tobiko caviar;
PICS 9-10 - Patisserie Bar & Restaurant - a huge selection of pastries, cakes, desserts and ice creams, you name it.
Only on Fridays, the Butcher’s Table is every carnivore’s dream destination in Jakarta. Priced at 588k rupiah, around £30pp, it is also outstanding value for the variety of dishes and the quality on offer. Highly recommended.

Do you ever travel solo? I often do (as I am doing right now in Asia) and to this day whenever solo travelling is a topic of conversation, it still surprises me when people ask – ‘but don’t you hate eating alone?’. As a matter of fact, I love going into a restaurant on my own - dining solo means I have more time to think about the food in front of me, I believe it heightens my appreciation of the whole experience. The only real drawback is not being able to order as much as I would as part of a group!

My dinner at Liyen, fine-dining Chinese restaurant , was just one of these experiences. Luckily, Liyen offers a 5-course set menu, so I didn’t have to make any hard choices. After the intensely rich curries of Sumatra (which I thoroughly loved), it was a blessing to have something gentler, highly sophisticated but still packed with flavour. I enjoyed every bite.

PIC 1 – The signature house-crafted tofu with shimeji mushrooms and greens was a soothing and gentle dish yet full of flavour. I loved having tofu dishes, particularly when they are freshly made in-house and of this quality. As many of you know, I love tofu so much I named my doggie after it! 🐶

PIC 2 - Deep-fried chicken cutlet with shrimp paste was again excellent. The addition of shrimp paste to the crispy batter was a strike of genius making the soft meat so divinely tasteful.

PIC 3 - Deep-fried spareribs with barbecue sauce was thankfully boneless (as I only have one functioning arm right now after my fracture), so the morsels were meaty, fork tender and the sauce smoky and sweet.

PIC 4 - Fried rice with scallops & egg white had a wonderful wok-breath & large pieces of scallop meat. It was tasty & a great accompaniment.

PIC 5 - Chilled sea-coconut with lemon & longan was a surprisingly refreshing dessert. My 1st time eating sea-coconut (Lodoicea or Coco de Mer) it was fleshy with a tangy, citrusy flavour. It was served in a brown sugar & lemon syrup with longans.
PICS 6-10 – The gorgeous, newly refurbished Liyen .

13/11/2022

PIC 1 – Lontong Sayur Medan simply blew my mind away! Lontong is Indonesian rice cakes steamed in banana leaves. It's eaten at all hours of the day and night as an alternative to steamed rice. But wait…
PIC 2-4 - In Medan (capital of North Sumatra) however, Longtong is mixed with a number of different condiments and topped with a delicious Sayur Lodeh broth made from mixed vegetables and coconut milk. According to Head Chef Wahidin it is the addition of the spicy veg mix (tumis tauco) & the umami-laden peanut & salted baby fish (teri kacang) that makes this dish uniquely Medan. This was my favourite dish at the sumptuous breakfast buffet , and one you must try when you visit Medan in North Sumatra.
PIC 5 – Mie Bangladesh is a heart-warming noodle dish in a thick but gentle curry sauce. This Indonesian dish is a gastronomic-nod to the large Bangladesh community found in Medan, and another one for your bucket-list of Indonesian dishes to try!
PIC 6 – I have written about Bubur Ayam before (the Indonesian rice porridge with chicken) but in Medan, this dish is served without the chicken & coconut broth, making it a lighter brekkie option.
PICS 7-10 – At breakfast is served al fresco at the poolside area among tropical vegetation and blue skies. There are many breakfast stations catering for just about anything you might want! Heavenly in my opinion.

12/11/2022

PIC 1 - Gulai Nangka is a delicious Padang-style young jackfruit dish in a rich coconut & red chilli curry flavoured with a number of spices, think cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, galangal etc, it had layer upon layer of flavour. Another fabulous dish I got to try at ..
PIC 2 - Rendang Suwir - semi-dry shredded beef rendang, incredibly aromatic and with rich caramelised coconut flavour.
PIC 3 - Minangkabau Kampiun Breakfast Mix:
* Kolak Pisang - banana & pumpkin in coconut milk 
* Bubur Kacang Hijai - green mung bean in coconut milk
* Bubur Hitam - black glutinous rice porridge w/ coconut milk
* Bubur Sum-Sum - white glutinous rice paste. All Served with + coconut milk and coconut molasses.
PIC 4 - Tropical Fruit – I am not much of fruit person back home but in Asia, fruit is ripe and so sweet - mangosteen, papaya, pineapple, watermelon, mangoes, you name it!
PICS 5-10 - Bebek Lado Hijau – Duck in Green Chillies cookery demo by ’s Head Chef Hasan - this was a fantastic dish of duck marinated and fried in a paste of green chillies and myriad spices like galangal, cloves and cinnamon, so good!
Super excited to learn about these unique Sumatran-Indonesian dishes, yet there is so much more to discover!
