I get the impression you put peppers in everything you eat, probably in your cornflakes too. Hehe

Just been to The Owl (Lockside Leeds) with SWMBO for a (slightly belated) Burns Night Tasting Menu* (with accompanying wine flight pairing) - amazing food, excellent service, great wine pairing. The Chicken Thigh wrapped in Parma Ham topped with a Whitstable Oyster and Chive, Caviar, & Champagne Sauce was especially outstanding.

Would recommend The Owl for anyone in reasonable travelling distance.

We had Waitrose £20 deal


Prawn cocktail
Chicken Kiev with parmesan and truffle butter, frites
Rhubarb and custard desert thing


Rose wine - this normally retails at £14 on it's own.


Overall - meh! Frites and wine were the best items.

The story behind the Barras new street food spot Ho Lee Fook

… The couple, who previously lived in nearby Dennistoun, settled on the tongue-in-cheek name which translate as Good (Ho) Wealth (Lee) Luck (Fook) because of the meaning, but also because it sounds "great for the area".

Trying salmon a little differently.

Salmon marinated in olive oil, lemon juice, and zaatar, then baked in the oven with Parmentier potatoes and asparagus, accompanied by Lebanese flatbread (washed down by a very nice Pinot Noir).

It was yummy.

Re: What are you eating now thread?
 
Yesterday I took a back rib of beef and put on a coffee/chilli rub. Then browned off some onions, added some beer (Proper Job - IPA) and some beef stock. Put this into a roasting tin, sat beef onto a rack above the liquid and put foil over the whole nice and tight then into a oven at Gas 1 for a few hours. About one hour before eating I put a bit of sweet BBQ sauce over the meat and resealed.


It just about carved so wasn't over done and had some juices. Great taste with mash and some vegetables.

Just been out for a nice Christmas meal with some friends I worked with 30 years ago at Jones Cable, a precursor of VM

I had deviled kidneys for starters, then 12oz Aged Yorkshire Rib Eye with Vine Tomatoes, Green Peppercorn Sauce, and pomme frites, followed by Christmas Pudding in an Armagnac and Morello Cherry sauce.


We drank Geverey Chambertin (very nice), Recolata Malbec (OK), and some Jeune Rouge Chateau Bessarabia, Beka Valley, Lebanon (very nice) - 3 bottles between two went down very well.
