Portobello road

My favourite stall on Portobello. The mushroom man!

Delicious mix of wild, exotic and fresh cultivated mushrooms. Perfect for cooking on these autumnal eves.

Can't wait to make a wild mushroom spaghetti tonight; with parsley, white wine, garlic, dried chilli, olive oil and some more fine fine wine.

Mushroom stall: Portobello road between Tabott road and Westbourne park road

Love ending up here. The Spice Shop- for all your spicy needs.

La Fromagerie

Such a wonderful cheese shop, La Fromagerie, just off Marlybone High Street. Is worth traveling across London for. Especially at weekends to get a slice of their truffled brie!


Bay tree love bugs




you never know what you are going to find in your bay tree

Garlic!!


Avignon, South of France

Flavoured Oil

Flavoured oils are incredibly useful, and extremely easy to make. I personally can't stand store-bought, pre-made oils, they lack flavour and the oil is often very poor.

TV Supper

Garlic mushrooms and spinach on toast with homemade mayo

Chives

Chop them up and put them in your mash potato, or scrambled eggs.. sprinkle them on your salad, or mix with butter and garlic and make your own flavoured butter... put them in an omelet with loads of cheese, or over your mac n cheese.. yem
