🇬🇧 and that’s a wrap!

Our final Soirée Festin of the summer is over and we wanted to say a huge thank you to everyone who came to dine with us this year. We had so much fun devising menus, cooking for you, and chatting to you lovely folk!

To celebrate the end of the season we’re planning an informal event on the 9th October, no fine-dining just generous plates of tasty food (always with a veggie/ vegan option) made with local@ingredients, good b**r, good w**e, and a great atmosphere - more info soon! 🍻🍷

But in the meantime we’ve got a little while to rest, reflect and start hatching our plans for next year.

🇫🇷 Voilà, c’est plié !

Notre dernière Soirée Festin de l’été est terminée et on voulait dire un immense merci à tous ceux qui sont venus dîner avec nous cette année. On s’est régalés à imaginer les menus, à cuisiner pour vous, et à papoter avec vous tous !

Pour fêter la fin de la saison on prépare un événement informel le 9 octobre, pas de gastronomie ici, juste de généreuses assiettes de bons petits plats (toujours avec une option veggie/vegan) préparés avec des produits locaux, de la bonne bière, du bon vin, et une ambiance au top - plus d’infos bientôt ! 🍻🍷

Mais en attendant on a un petit moment pour se reposer, faire le bilan et commencer à mijoter nos projets pour l’année prochaine.

I’ve just spent a wonderful long weekend in the UK celebrating the wedding of a fabulous friend, catching up with the best people, and hanging out with my fairy godchildren.

It was so much fun, and honestly friends and family are the biggest thing we miss, and the biggest sacrifice we made when we moved here was not getting to see them more often, but boy am I glad to be home.

I’m not built for the city anymore. It’s these hills and big blue skies that ground me; give me oxygen and energy, and such a sense of peace.

I can’t believe how lucky we are to call this place home 💙💙💙

Last week we cooked for a lovely family who were holidaying in a gorgeous old house in the countryside.

We catered for 11 adults and 7 children over three nights. We prepared healthy but accessible meals for the children including homemade oven baked free range chicken tenders with peas and potato wedges, « hidden vegetable » meatballs and spaghetti with tomato sauce and crudités. For puddings we made a build your own ice cream sundae station and gooey warm chocolate brownies with homemade vanilla ice cream.

For the adults we cooked delicious seasonal and locally sourced meals including a simple French supper of tender lemon and garlic roast chicken with aioli, tomato shallot salad, crispy potatoes, and courgette, pea and ricotta salad, followed by crème brûlée with shortbread; or our Mediterranean sharing supper with pomegranate chicken, saffron pilaf, shirazi salad, grilled aubergines with tamarind and pickled chillies and roasted carrots with labneh and harissa butter. All followed by fig leaf cake with figs roasted in spiced rum, mascarpone cream and fig leaf oil.

If you want someone to take the stress out of a big group holiday, get in touch to talk through options and book your slot for 2027.

All our menus are fully customisable and we can cater for a full range of dietary needs and preferences.

🇬🇧Some simple diners just for the two of us. Gaelic and lemon chicken skewers with Greek salad, tzatziki and flatbreads; and chicken schnitzel Holstein with fried egg, anchovies and capers, and the most beautiful Riesling.

Plus, the only things that survived the heat and drought in our potager this year were the more exotic plans like the chillies and this beautiful tomatillo.

🇫🇷 Des dîners simples juste pour nous deux : brochettes de poulet ail et citron avec salade grecque et tzatziki; et schnitzel au poulet façon Holstein, avec œuf poêlé, anchois et câpres et le plus beau de rieslings.

Les seules choses qui ont survécues la sécheresse et la chaleur cette été dans notre potager sont les plantes exotiques - les piments, et les tomatillos.

What a treat to be able to cook this beautiful piece of beef for one of our lovely guests’ birthday!

We served a delicate, chilled vichyssoise soup to start, reverse seared T-bone steak, with crispy potatoes, tomato and basil salad, green beans with pickled shallots, and béarnaise sauce for the main event, then this glossy little baby for pudding - a mirabelle & rene claude tart with fig leaf frangipane, served with olive oil ice cream.

Before we sat down, we shared a complimentary bottle of Canto Perlic Perle Celeste and then our guests enjoyed a big bold ProduttoriDelBarbaresco to compliment the steak.

🇬🇧 I’m so excited about my latest purchase!
Sone peopled want Gucci handbags, I just want four varieties of paprika…

Don’t come for me, Spain, but I’m 100% team Hungarian paprika 🇭🇺

Not only is it delicious but it also comes in 8 different varieties, each with its own distinct flavour and uses.

I’ve only got the most common four: sweet, smoked, hot, and hot smoked.

🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️

🇫🇷 Je suis tellement ravie de mon dernier achat !
Certaines personnes rêvent de sacs à main Gucci, moi je veux juste quatre variétés de paprika…

Ne m’en veux pas, Espagne, mais je suis à 100 % fan du paprika hongrois 🇭🇺

Non seulement il est délicieux, mais il existe en 8 variétés différentes, chacune avec sa saveur et ses utilisations propres.

Je n’ai que les quatre plus courantes : doux, fumé, piquant et fumé piquant.
