Shallot, potato and goat cheese tatin

If you choose to serve this as a starter at a dinner party, alongside a fresh herb salad, you are guaranteed to impress your partner. It looks more complicated to make than it actually is and it is spectacularly delicious.

I start out looking for Ottolenghi’s ‘Peach and Speck Salad’ to share with you — having spotted it today in their recently purchased cookbook, but the Tatin sounds (and looks) equally delicious.  Zoom Image

Envy post production - great example of good brand job done



So different to every other post house that they’re raking it in just on their ‘boutiquey’ hotel feel, maybe will date fast but its very refreshing take for that industry. [LP]

London, Global City of the Year. You bet it is!

“It’s shockingly expensive. The roads are jammed with traffic. The subway system’s hopeless, and the buses no better. There’s a surveillance camera on every other corner, and the sidewalks are strewn with litter. The biggest airport is a joke. The richest residents are fleeing or threatening to; the poorest have been chased out into the suburbs by soaring property prices. And the weather sucks.

Why is somewhere with so much against it such a great place for creatives to live and work?…”
