Under Milkwood’s spell. I’ve been eager to eat at Milkwood since it opened last year. The team who opened it have a great pedigree, having opened some of Cardiff’s best eateries (Potted Pig, Porro, the Lansdowne). My eagerness was cemented by the Milkwood Team’s appearance at Bite festival in Insole […]

I LOVE breakfast cereal in almost all its guises (there is a special place in hell reserved for nasty Sugar Puffs). Malty Kelloggs Start and the classic Coco Pops are dangerously addictive faves. Is there a better way to spend an evening than with a box of cereal, some ice […]
I am definitely in a bit of a baking frenzy at the moment, last week I made three different loaf cakes in a 48 hour period (including this Dense chocolate loaf cake) – this reignited passion for baking is certainly not conducive to my healthy eating. I also ordered a […]
‘15 cloves of garlic, crushed’ and ‘200g of tomato puree’, you would be forgiven in thinking that these two ingredients were part of some big batch cook for a party, not for a light brunch dish for four. I can assure you they are not a typo. I was intrigued […]
Combining many loves.. poached eggs with melted leeks. This is breakfast for dinner on crack. Fun factoid – the Welsh first joined forces with that delicious Allium, the leek, during a battle against those pesky Saxon invaders under the direction of.. Saint David! They wore them to identify who was a […]
Having cooked more variations on a chilli con carne in my time than I’d care to count, I was intrigued by Felicity Cloake’s Perfect recipe. Whether veggie, steak, turkey or classic mince, I’ve gladly attempted to eat my way through this bastardized dish. I’ll freely admit that I have never […]
Rocky road is one of those treats that appeals to all. A medley of chocolate and other niceties, divided into minute portions that no one really adheres to. It is a sweet treat for overeating, not being calorie conscious. Growing up in the 90s, Rocky Road seemed almost exotic. Americana […]
I love the fresh flavours of the middle east. It was probably about two years ago that I had a sudden, intense craving for fattoush and cooked (/prepared) Felicity Cloake’s Perfect iteration of the middle eastern mainstay. I’ve proceeded to prepare a vague version of fattoush at almost every opportunity […]
Ever since I successfully made the Peach and goats cheese salad from their first book recently, I’ve been desperate to try some other recipes from the duo behind Honey & Co. Everything in the book just looks so so delicious, but I kept flicking back to their recipe for pomegranate […]
Rarely eating fruit, forever protesting of the high sugar content as my excuse to not hit my ‘5 a day’, I do however find myself buying it all too often. Beyond the necessary citrus bowl, there is always aPt least one piece of fruit in the fridge bought with good […]
