I must admit that I’m a meat and 3 vegs sort of person, but Hubby loves watching those cooking shows and trying some of the recipes. I think my absolute favourite is Italian after my basic boring stuff. 😃
Has your rain arrived @Pat E? You badly need it. It seems to just keep missing you. Freezy frosty again here. Minus 6 just now. I've forgotten to break the ice on all the wee watering places so I'll go and do that and get more tea. I agree with you @Hostafan1 . Too much nonsense about food. I've been to fine dining restaurants etc, but they've always been 'appropriate'. It all gets a bit like London Fashion week though. Hope you got back to sleep....
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
I'm not a foodie, but I've been to one or two 'name' restaurants - mostly ten or 15 years ago when I was in a position which required me to take clients out for posh meals in London. I had a few really good meals at Fergus Henderson's place - never fussy stuff. Gordon Ramsay's was definitely 'meh' - nothing special. Gennaro Contaldo's was really good - probably my favourite. Never got to the River Café although the sandwich lunches in Richard Roger's offices (next door) were really good.
Chilli is one of those things - like salt and sugar - the more you have the more you need to have to be able to taste it.
Quiet weekend here. NewDog tried to run up a barbed wire fence yesterday and is nursing a cut paw. The weather is indifferent and damp and cold. Think I'll try re-upholstering some of our dining chairs

I hope the fires are under control and you and your Husband get some respite from it all, AND some rain.
