Tubby Tryptych

I’m beginning to see why I’m getting a little thick round the middle at the moment.         And that’s just in the last 10 days! ..lol..

Ever Tried Black Garlic?

You know you’ve got a cooking problem when you see some new random ingredient in the supermarket and you just have to have it! I came across this the other day whilst looking for fennel seeds (keep an eye out for an excellent soup recipe coming soon) and I just couldn’t resist. It’s garlic that’s [...]

Tide Tables 2, the sad return.

Where to begin??? Some of you may remember my previously glowing report on the Tide Tables Cafe in Richmond. I spoke highly of the food and encouraged people to go there to check out their vegan fare. And so it was with great enthusiasm that I went there to check out their new menu for [...]

Lemon Dribble Cake

Ok, so I know it’s normally ‘drizzle’, but this really is more of a dribbley recipe. It’s funny, coz you end up with a sort of wet patch down the middle (stop giggling) but it kind of works. You’ll just have to try it to see what I mean. 200g plain flour 170g margerine 170g [...]
