Funny how long ago it feels, when I ate seafood on a rocky beach, salty and sunburnt, and as hungry as hell after a long swim. But that was Camogli Italy and it was such a magical spot. Every day we took a boat out to St Frutuosa, a small bay with an ancient monastery on it, not the perfect backdrop for pure hedonism right? Check out that delicious afternoon below. And if you have ever been there, please share your experience. Ciao tutti! x

A lovely few days in Camogli, Italy reminded us how simple food is best. Bruscetta brushed with olive oil, with the freshest and most delicate Anchovies I’ve ever had.

Having worked on Dean St in Soho for the last 8 months, it’s no wonder I became a huge fan of Signor Zilli. This Soho institution has stood the test of time with its classic menu, great atmosphere, fantastic service and wide range of divine dishes. I have never met celebrity chef Signor Aldo Zilli, but Nino always makes us feel special and welcome, this time, moving a table and chairs out doors for us when all the others were occupied. We started with Grilled Squid with Sweet Chilli Sauce & Rocket – (Calamari ai Ferri con Rucola) followed by…

Lottie and Wayne decided to throw a Friday night 5 year anniversary party to celebrate their loving marriage. All together….”Awwww Mazeltov!” Of course we all popped around, to share the love, knowing the vino would be flowing and accompanied by some kind of surprise divine creation. And we were not dissappointed! These pizzas on a brioche base were like nothing I ever tasted…
When Princess Lottie and Wayne visit Narbonne one of the things they love to do is EAT. So it’s no surprise that one of their favourite places to visit is Les Halles, an undercover market famed for its wonderful produce. A typical morning is spent walking up and down the aisles sampling and buying fresh produce, to take back to ‘the family home’ affectionately known as ‘Piglet’ – a very appropriate name considering the amount of food consumed there in between sunning themselves and sipping the local wine! Drool!
