A compendium of fun

I have also been doing some schtuff over the last few months - it would take too many blog posts to cover them in detail but I thought a little photo compendium might just be the trick... enjoy!

Chilli and parsley hot smoked salmon. Inspired by Lindy Wildsmith's wonderful book Cured


A trip to Dumfries and Galloway - possibly my favourite British Hotel Knockinaam Lodge - no photos of the food but with it holding one of the few stars to be found outside of Edinburgh, it's certainly something special.



And the surrounding scenery is fairly impressive - cliff walks, gorse and heather



Not forgetting Hix Oyster and Fish House in Lyme Regis. I shiver. Yes shiver, when I think of that meal...
