Lovers of fine vegetarian food. If we're not cooking or eating it, we're reading, talking or writing about it. We wear our food with pride!

In which we linger at Longa and even outstay our friends (in mitigation, they would otherwise have missed their train).

Striking, engaging & sometimes poignant images here.

Feck. Slate's gone & the quest to find a roofer to do a small repair, preferably a reliable one & before too much promised rain gets in, goes on. And on. And on.

Rate it as stressful as the 8 o'clock GP surgery phone scramble 😬

@SolicitingFlava Old Winchester's a favourite (unsurprisingly, also used by Hiraeth).

Latest post up on the blog poses the question "Is it swell and the Swill?", with a look at the new Pig and Swill in Victoria Park, Cardiff.

@Food_A4thought In South Devon. Tracked it down to the producer's (Bollhayes) online shop afterwards but it was sold out :( Going to keep our eyes peeled, felt it almost had a French cidre vibe.

Crisp, just off-dry and fresh from the fridge, this went down well over that hot BH weekend, alcohol free but certainly not flavour or pleasure free.

Two people discussing assisted dying, one for, one against. Both agree that the Leadbeater Bill was too flawed. Am currently reading the book they co-authored, which is very interesting and insightful

@cleanplateblog With you there. Whether an always thing for the place or there's a one-off card pay problem on the day, should be upfront on their site/socials &, if an unexpected issue, a message sent to booked-in folk (visions of someone suddenly cash-paying a birthday dinner for 6).

Latest post up on the blog is on whether one of the newest members of Cardiff's chain gang (in the form of Tonkotsu) is worth a visit?

If any of you ever find good quality falooda or kulfi in London, let me know (sadly the quality of ice cream used is often poor).

@SolicitingFlava The brik tart the parfait was in had a crunchy, punchy topping too. Those guys really know what they're doing & it showed over & over.

Hiraeth, (n): a sense of longing for finished dishes on a tasting menu

Could've cancelled the rest of the dishes & repeated these two over & over - except we'd have missed the excellent others.

First time we've been to Hiraeth & won't be the last.

[team NotLeafy @NotLeafy]

@SolicitingFlava An excellent menu!

Ha, had the tofu dish! Delicious & a joy, contrast with previous bland sufferings. Karage was well flavoured, marinated as the omni version, furikake & a crisp coat. Piece size made for good texture. Parfait was creamy as if whipped, no dreaded chalkiness.
