Forks at the Ready!

The Fields to Fork Festival is heading to Whitebottom Farm in Stockport over the weekend of 3rd and 4th May, featuring live music, cooking demonstrations, a whole host of well-known chefs and fantastic food and drink.

 

With the weather being what it is at the moment, we have to hope for some consistency as it will be a beautiful weekend in the sun if so!

 

You can get your tickets here.

 

The estate itself is set in gorgeous countryside so it’s a fantastic opportunity to get out and around nature, satisfy some hunger pangs, while getting to see some big names cooking up close.

 

Confirmed chefs in attendance include no less than four Masterchef: The Professionals champions – Stu Deeley, Dan Lee, Nikita Pathakiji and 2024’s winner Dan Merriman; alongside Lisa Goodwin-Allen, who until very recently headed up Northcote’s Michelin Star restaurant and two Michelin Starred Aktar Islam of Opheem.

 

While I’m on the subject of Opheem, I have just booked my train tickets to Birmingham on 31st May, where I’ll be settling down to a 10 course tasting menu at the famous restaurant, and the only Indian outside of London to hold one Michelin Star, never mind two!

 

Opheem

Off to Opheem!

 

It promises to be an absolute delight, and I can’t wait to experience and write a piece about it. You can visit the website and see for yourself what treats await me!

 

Finally, if you’re looking for exciting new openings across the UK, The Caterer has your back right here.

 

Being where we are, I’m particularly excited about Lina Stores. The London based restaurants group is opening their first doors outside of London in magnificent Manchester.

I’ve read about this place and the palpable excitement it’s sure to bring, with an all-day restaurant serving antipasti, fresh pasta, secondi and dolci for lunch and dinner, a delicatessen and their classic Italian cocktail bar, Bar Lina.

Holy moly, Bar Shrimp is something special.I was absolutely in my element on my solo seat at the counter last Friday.The team from Higher Ground have got this show well and truly nailed down, and it fits Manchester's food scene like Sunday's frozen pitch fits a Thermos flask.The best negroni I've ever tasted, followed by four Cumbrae oysters and a late Lindisfarne addition (Happy Hour!!! 50% off!!!).Scallop tartare (OMG) with elderflower dressing. Then a big old chunky spider crab: he was a chunky and delicious boy.I will devour padron peppers wherever I see them, but try them with bottarga (I didn't know either, dried fish roe pouch - apparently it's "the parmesan of the sea") grated over.Devilled eggs with brown crab and trout roe 🤌*mwah*, then Arbroath smokie fritters, outrageously moreish. Just for good mesaure a few more scallops: Grilled Queenie ones in mouclade butter to be precise.Head Chef YUNA KIM / 김유나 kitchen runs as smooth as the tarragon mayo that came with that delicious spider crab; and yes I can't get this outing out of my mind, so I've entered in to analogy "Inception". It's analogy within analogy; I'm comparing my meal to itself 🤯Gutted I didn't get the name of the guy on the bar so I could give him a shout out for spending the best part of two hours keeping me entertained, plying me with wine, and answering questions like "what's bottarga?" 🙃After me and the guy on the bar (sorry!) exchanged cat pictures, I was dragged out kicking and screaming, yelling "just one more oyster!" (That last bit is a lie.)In short; if you like a chilled vibe, exceptional seafood and a restaurant with a DJ, maybe we'll bump into each other next time I'm there. Which I'm hoping isn't too far off 🤓 ...

This beautiful country house hotel is set across 240 acres of parkland, surrounded by woodland and open countryside in Berkshire. 🌳A 5 Star hotel with a rather impressive spa, Michelin-starred dining, and one particularly unusual feature for a country house hotel — its own polo fields. 🐎With royal connections, an equestrian heritage and plenty of history tucked away among the trees…Can you guess where it is? 👀Swipe through and see if you can work it out. ...

I couldn't just take Manchester's Finest at their word regarding JOJI had to find out for myself. So that's what I did the other Saturday. On my bill. Eating raw fish and pretending that I can use chopsticks 🥢 It was incredible. Sublime. So fresh. Such amazing ingredients, treated with expertise and care. And I have to let you know, there's something to be said for dining alone; it's going to be my new hobby.There was a lovely moment sat at the counter, when a total stranger and I made eye contact as we tried a dish at the same time, and both did that narrowing of the eyes when you taste something delicious, as we shared a moment of appreciation for our experience. He then turned back towards the friends he had come along with 😂🤓Digression... Anyway it was top. In the words of Douglas Adams "thanks for all the fish" 😁🫡 ...
