Extension to the mouse house
A post by The Beer Nut at The Beer Nut
Once an excitingly different craft brewery, 32 year-old Harviestoun of Alva is near enough part of the scenery at this stage, turning out reliable classics like Old Engine Oil and Bitter & Twisted. So I was pleased to be offered these new ones, sent as samples to Steve and passed on to me. Good as the core bers are, they could always do with some company.The Ridge is an Amarillo and Fuggle pale ale, named after the pointy bit in the middle of the Atlantic. Continue reading »
[Review] Relae, Copenhagen
A post by dudara at Stitch and Bear
Sometimes you come across a district that is achingly cool, in a genuine way and not in a “trying too hard” way. This was the feeling we encountered as we got out of our taxi on the quiet street of Jaegersborggade in the Copenhagen district of Nørrebro.
Relæe comes from two Noma alumni, Christian Puglisi and Kim Rossen. To be honest, having Noma alumni in your kitchen is pretty much de rigeur for any self-respecting Copenhagen restaurant. Continue reading »

Photography Confidence
A post by Wholesome Ireland at Wholesome Ireland
Let me explain about this photography confidence that I felt I had lost. Regular readers will know that last year my first cookbook was published and I put my heart and soul into that book. I wrote the book at a time when things were very bad for us and it gave me something to focus on.
I am not the world’s best photographer. I’m the first person to put my hand up and admit it. Putting my words, and my pictures into print made me feel exposed. Continue reading »
Amuse Bouche
A post by Billy Lyons at RESTAURANTS AND FOOD IN CORK
In this solitude he sipped his wine, liking the solidity of the house, the smell of books and carpets, the whiff of wood smoke from the fire, the aromas from the kitchen, always lamb or fish stews and chowders, and bags of fresh salads sent up every morning from a restaurant in Vineyard Haven…
The pale yellow Chablis in his glass was so rich that when he tipped his glass to sip, and righted it, he saw that it was viscous, showing its legs on the side of the glass. Continue reading »
We’re all mild now
A post by The Beer Nut at The Beer Nut
“Localising mild” is the subject that Al, of Fuggled and American Mild Month, wants us to tackle for this month’s Session. If America can develop her own sort of mild then why can’t everywhere else? It’s at this point that I go all historically pedantic and point out that almost every beer we drink nowadays is mild. Originally, the term just meant ready to drink immediately rather than requiring ageing. Continue reading »
