A simple, relaxed Sunday lunch of roast chicken and a salad with mixed sprouts. There’s no reason a Sunday meal needs to be an ordeal.
Erica, one of the great intuitive chefs, cooked up a delicious frittata for us in their gorgeous West Village art space.
This week it’s Princess Lottie’s uglier half giving you a taste of what it was like to grow up in Mama Hue’s kitchen. Strong aromas (!), fresh ingredients, and flavours that packed a whole lot of punch: that was Mama’s trademark. And the in-laws certainly approved on Saturday when we cooked up this Vietnamese inspired feast. Credit also goes to Mr Ramsey’s Chinese five-spiced pork for leaving the in-laws thoroughly fed and ready to burst, but it was really Princess Lottie’s chocolate delight in a box that made us roll them out of here…
PS: if you want to taste Mama’s home recipes, just give us a shout. I’m sure she’ll be on the first plane over here!

Salmon and tuna sashimi, gyoza, pork katsu, edamame, prawn salad, chilli squid, and I cant remember the rest. Ok, it wasn’t just me, Sacha helped.
A few years ago I met my sweetheart (and co-creator of this blog) at the Bibendum Oyster Bar. Good memories.
