stunning piece by Sharanya Deepak out today on @vittles.bsky.social : www.vittlesmagazine.com/p/why-cant-y...

Published today: a joyous exploration of what was once the UK's best desi pub davidjesudason.substack.com/p/glassy-jun...

wrote about super 8 - the group behind smoking goat, kiln, brat and mountain, and arguably the most influential restaurant group in the country right now - and whether it’s new restaurant impala can escape the template of being just another ‘super 8 restaurant’ www.vittlesmagazine.com/p/same-impala

diabolically good headline for today's @vittles.bsky.social restaurant review that could apply to either institution cited www.vittlesmagazine.com/p/same-impala

I’ve spent the last year investigating how the UK's broken employment tribunal system lets rogue bosses evade justice. But this is the craziest case,by far. A restaurant chain that lost 21 tribunal claims over several years, yet never paid a single one🧵 www.thebureauinvestigates.com/stories/2026...

We were lucky enough to partner with the UK's best food publication @vittles.bsky.social for this investigation. Here's their version of the story: open.substack.com/pub/vittles/...

Hello friends. I wrote a piece about martinis and my late father for Vittles. Hope ya dig it 🍸🫀 substack.com/@vittles/not...

This, from the great @vittles.bsky.social, is a fascinating read: open.substack.com/pub/vittles/...

Thus is a brilliant piece of writing. People ask me where labour history writing is. It's in journals like this.

Jamie Oliver and the British food problem www.vittlesmagazine.com/p/bad-people...

Terrific @vittles.bsky.social series on UK Chinatowns - here, a smart article on how Chinese students in the UK have transformed them www.vittlesmagazine.com/p/the-new-ch... - for a delicious spin on UKHE, for a change

The @vittles.bsky.social Chinatown project I guest-edited is out! No other neighbourhood has undergone a greater transformation. We have essays on who Chinatown is for? Have students reshaped UK food culture? And ofc a bumper guide on the best places to eat: www.vittlesmagazine.com/p/the-vittle...

Reading my new essay — on mould, eating disorders, and Trans Kids Deserve Better — at the @vittles.bsky.social issue two (Bad Food) launch tonight at Horse Hospital.

I was very glad to be asked by @vittles.bsky.social to contribute to this weekend’s Six of One - Myanmar Special. I did so for two main reasons www.vittlesmagazine.com/p/six-of-one... (1/2)

Fascinating essay on *why* some cultures are terrified of reheating rice and others just...do it every day. The justification cycle - racialised thinking, call to science, appeal to long past and/or 'traditional' wisdom - seems universal for this sort of food story #histFood

Really enjoyed this rice-reheating odyssey from @vittles.bsky.social www.vittlesmagazine.com/p/grain-of-t... #food #writing #history #scicomm

I simply love to be able to commission essays like @luketurner.bsky.social piece on 'ratting' – a perverse eating practice he developed working in restaurants at the turn of the millenium. Illustration by Antoine Cossé In today's @vittles.bsky.social (free) www.vittlesmagazine.com/p/i-once-ate...

I've written about how my troubled relationship with food was helped by "ratting" – the decadent habit of restaurant staff scarfing customers' abandoned food, and one that gives a thrill in the domestic kitchen. The ratter, you see, is hornier than most... www.vittlesmagazine.com/p/i-once-ate...

Sex and food at the LRB Bookshop with a discussion by writers Sheena Patel and Lauren J Joseph whose work is in the new issue of @vittles.bsky.social magazine! www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/vittles-2-...

A fun read from @vittles.bsky.social to start the week.

An excellent piece in @vittles.bsky.social by one of our recent @royalcollegeofart.bsky.social Writing graduates, Mariam Abdel-Razek.

Such a good piece up today on @vittles.bsky.social by Mariam Abdel-Razek (and incred illustration by Sing Yun Lee, too) www.vittlesmagazine.com/p/the-myth-o...

This . From @vittles.bsky.social . Is bloody great. Adding tongue emojis for emphasis. 👅👅👅👅👅🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩 open.substack.com/pub/vittles/...

For @vittles.bsky.social, I wrote about what happens food photography - a practice steeped in stagecraft - meets the synthetic horrors of AI images. Gorgeous original illustration by Ibrahim Rayintakath. www.vittlesmagazine.com/p/you-want-t...

Extremely proud to have contributed to @vittles.bsky.social 'Six of the Best' South South East London Special and cracking up to discover that *two* of our recommendations are on the exact same road. Out today! www.vittlesmagazine.com/p/is-there-a...

"Beef Wellington is a dish designed to dazzle and comfort at once. It offered the perfect cover for Patterson’s plan, dressing intent to kill in the flaky drapery of a culinary showstopper." —Aaron Timms for @vittles.bsky.social www.vittlesmagazine.com/p/death-by-d...

Hanna Thomas Uose on complex PTSD and finding a way to cook without knives in today's @vittles.bsky.social www.vittlesmagazine.com/p/soft-cooking

Perfect example of why I recommend @vittles.bsky.social to so many ppl. This kind of roving thoughtful exploration of the edges of a topic-historical/social connections you'd never make yourself-models the kind of piece I love to read (& ideally write) (also feeds my obsession w/Aus food TV MKR4Eva)

Fascinating @vittles.bsky.social on the murder by Beef Wellington in Oz: “We don’t know whether Patterson is a fan of MasterChef, but all murders reflect culture back to itself." www.vittlesmagazine.com/p/death-by-d...

Wrote a bit about Bad Customers for @vittles.bsky.social! You need a paid sub I think but you should probably have one anyway open.substack.com/pub/vittles/...

Fantastic little vignette about Glinner from today's @vittles.bsky.social newsletter (I highly recommend subscribing btw, if you're in any way interested in food).

I was beyond excited when the author of the new biography of Gertrude Stein, Francesca Wade, said she'd like to write about Alice B. Toklas for @vittles.bsky.social – and her essay is out today! Illustration by Ella Bucknall. www.vittlesmagazine.com/p/the-alice-...

A great dispatch from NYC in @vittles.bsky.social today about the role of small food businesses in Zohran Mamdani's campaigns – here's hoping some UK politicians take note... www.vittlesmagazine.com/p/how-did-zo...

Issue two of @vittles.bsky.social in PRINT now available to pre-order! It has the theme of BAD FOOD and is gross and gorgeous and packed full of incredible writing and illustrations vittlesmagazine.myshopify.com/products/vit...

This @vittles.bsky.social article by Eli Davies is a lovely piece of writing www.vittlesmagazine.com/p/this-pot-i...

I love this piece by @elidavies.bsky.social in today's @vittles.bsky.social (free to read) featuring @nigelslater.bsky.social beloved lentils and a well-travelled pot www.vittlesmagazine.com/p/this-pot-i...

This story - see also @londoncentric.media - is really upsetting and just awful. I emailed Neil Coyle MP just now to urge him to intervene - so should YOU.

Per @vittles.bsky.social on the superb restaurant threatened with closure in Elephant & Castle, #London: Latin Elephant is organising a public protest & creating a template for residents to email MPs & Council to urge scrutiny of what’s happening at Castle Square open.substack.com/pub/vittles/...

Sharing some recipes in today’s @vittles.bsky.social 😈 If you were horrified by Iga Świątek’s strawberry pasta, you’re not ready for this one. www.vittlesmagazine.com/p/cooking-fr...

Marta Zboralska on a dish she loves but which many people hate – fruit soup – and recipes for cooking from the polski sklep on @vittles.bsky.social www.vittlesmagazine.com/p/cooking-fr...

for @vittles.bsky.social, i wrote on the joys of lentils via two recipes for making sundal, which is a dish that dares to be categorised into one thing but is actually many things – think beyond dal! this is my urging to you
