Hahaha excellent 🤣 Somehow, deep deep down, we knew this would happen 🤣 @adampowley.bsky.social @bentleysbird.bsky.social @jonnorris12.bsky.social Money-Coutts, fuck me. How is that not made up? 🤣

New effort tonight. Never tried Scottish wolf fish. From my fish man @jonnorris12.bsky.social

Crab linguine, sweated some chilli and zest, added crabmeat, white wine, pasta water, parsley. Juice of one lemon, more zest to finish, claws for visuals. Avocado salad. Crisp white on the side

Schnitzel tonight @deallm.bsky.social Oh yes…

Prawn, spinach and cod cheek curry tonight kids!

After quite a few of these we went for a bit of this. How can you not love London? It’s fucking ace.

The Toucan. Soho, SW1.

South coast inshore squid still coming thick and fast.

I made a ‘pimped up’ Toad in the hole , thyme, parsley and leeks in the batter, toffee apple sausages and black pudding. Daughter made caramelised onion gravy. It was so, so good on a cold November night.

All 3 European competitions should consist of a random draw and 2 leg knockout ties, except for the final. Every Premier League club should be automatically drawn away from home in the 3rd round of the FA Cup. If a player withdraws from an international game he can't play again for 2 weeks.

Bream over beechwood with potatoes, leeks, courgettes, rosemary and bay. It is Friday after all.

Would you just look at that whopper!

It’s September so it’s time for some nice juicy, plump Shetland mussels. Panchetta, garlic, shallot, parsley, white wine and crème fraiche. Glass of Albariño.

Italian sausage, pepper and butter bean stew on this most autumnal of evenings. Plenty of parsley, basil and a dusting of Parmesan to finish. Glass of Chianti.

A story of picanha, wood, fire and grill in four parts.

Can’t say I’m fancying this market trading lark today…

Cold water wild caught prawns and Cornish monkfish. Marinated in roasted garlic, chilli, cumin, lime zest and coriander. Cooked over fire. Served with grilled Indian flatbreads, Fuckyuzu hot sauce and grilled spring onion. A terrific, light and spicy,late summers meal.

When will our 84 day trophy drought ever end?

Jerk chicken over charcoal. Is there a more appetising smell than this?

I smoked some beef cheeks and made some tacos. Pickle red onions and salsa on the side. One of my favourite meals of the year so far..

Used the pizza oven attachment yesterday as I was cooking for a gaggle of my 12 year old daughter’s friends. It’s a really fun way to get everyone involved even if it was a little smoky!

As I was hungover this morning I was craving a roast chicken & it's delicious crispy skin for dinner, but the butcher was sold out. So plot twist! Spicy seafood rice @jonnorris12.bsky.social fishmonger in Tufnell Park saved the day.. #comfortfood #shoplocal #tufnellpark

Line caught Welsh Bass, rosemary, lemon, salt. Over beech and oak.

We’re at the start of this timeline.

Waiting for the sardines.

Anglo/Filipino family celebration for my daughters 12th birthday yesterday. The weather held and we feasted. And we drank, lots. Lots of Filipino beer.

Do I really have to do this at 53 years of age..

mother in law visiting and cooked pasta vongole with clams and linguine from the mighty @jonnorris12.bsky.social a rare and delicious treat.

Who wore it better?

I’m in. No groping or racism going forward from this dream team.

Surf and turf. Cote de Boeuf, salt and pepper, over direct fire till 52’. Whilst resting, scallops with lime salt and basted with coriander and parsley butter. Grilled courgette for health. Greek wine.

Spurs appear to be buying good players that I’ve actually heard of and not a whisper from the ITK’s…

‘Warra trophy’ is still excellent fun over on the other place. #COYS

Of course I saved one for myself..

First landing of Cornish sardines was in the early hours of Friday morning. Grilled over wood in East London on Saturday night. Olive oil, salt, pepper, lemon. I know fish and seafood can be expensive but this is incredibly good value and as good as anything that swims.

So many happy memories but if you grew up here in the 1970s and 80s it’s hard not to notice how much cleaner it is, that it is more interesting, less polluted, far less menacing. Obviously, there are huge problems. But, housing aside, it’s generally just better. London has fallen? Absolute bollocks.

I’m definitely in the right job. I’m like a kid at Christmas now these have arrived!

Happy 11th birthday to my shop in Tufnell Park NW5!

Terry and a wild Scottish Halibut. Hackney E9.

Wood grilled Cornish octopus with Portuguese stew tonight.

Arriving Friday! All shops!

Cornish Crawfish on the way!

My daughter went into town for drinks with her friend yesterday afternoon. On Old Compton Street she was given free entry wristbands for Heaven. She went, curious to see where her parents had met. Rolled in at 4am this morning. Definitely her Mother’s Daughter.

I did some beef short ribs yesterday, took forever and I was quite pissed by the time we ate but they turned out pretty nice.

Marshmallows.
