Soft shell crab at Spuntino was good last time I had it!
Closer to "home" - Lon bridge - elliotscafe.com‎

I can't vouch for Dukes but I'd imagine you'll need to book, they seem to be rammed 24hrs a day

Spunts is great, loved it every time I've been there, and always leave so full even though I never order much, must be something they put in the chips

and in the whiskey...

Kaslik in Soho on Greek Street does great not pricey Lebanese.

Cheers guys will check them out, went to Spuntino a couple of years ago and it was ace, will try again

Saw Texas Joe at Brewdog Shorebitch lunchtime.

He certainly has a certain charm but nothing can compare with Texas Aroogah.

It's cold and wet outside and I can't be arsed to go and buy something to munch on while watching a movie.

So 1/4kg dulce du leche, muscavado sugar, a slab of butter, oats and a sprinkle of salt are now in the oven.

Hoping dulce du leche flapjacks are as lush as they sound.

They sound lecherous.

They smell amazing, now waiting for them to cool down.

It's only when you make them yourself you realise how many calories they contain.

Sounds like a delicious heart attack!

Place for a good roast near Spitalfields - not Hawksmoor?

Russell Norman on Sunday Brunch now, went to Polpo yesterday, Sardinian flatbread with lardo and walnuts, frito misto, rabbit ragu gnocchi, pork and fennel meatballs, absolutely top twat

Then Gelupo for ice-cream. Lovely.

Loin - how many of you are going? Feasting menu at St. John's might be worth a shout of there's a group of you.

Anywhere SE sell sumac?

Just marinated chicken thighs for fajita (roast; shred and in wraps with guacamole) with last 2 chipotles soaked in coffee; 2 cloves of garlic; paprika; pinch of fenell seeds cumin and salt; smells so good! Cant wait!

Any guacamole pro tips? I generally let the avocado over ripen (two in this case) and go in with half beef tomato; half finely chopped onion; finely chopped coriander; a clove of garlic salt pepper olive oil and mash the fuck out. I dont like any heat at all in guacamole so hold back the green chillies.

Add Lime juice. No tomato. No olive oil.

No tomato. No olive oil.

This.

Maybe creme fraiche. And a tiny bit of mustard.

Sour cream > creme fraiche but as a separate entity.

Mustard? No. And Hellllllllll no. Dead to me.

Mustard? wtfgtfo.

I do quite like a bit of ripe tomato in guacamole though. Lime juice is the key though.

this.changes.everything.

From 'crisps' which taste like vomit to 'crisps' which look like vomit?

you wash your dirty whore mouth out you hear!

That's exactly what I feel like doing and I haven't even tried them
