Always a pleasure to chat with you and apologies again for ‘singing’ along to ABBA. Thankfully it’s radio, so there’s no video evidence of me moonwalking round the restaurant to Michael Jackson….

@EaterWriter Shhh! Haven’t mention any options. Still happily trying to solve how the egg got inside the sausage.

I wanted to show the finished dish of these St Jaques in all their garlicky, buttery, smoked bacon & parsley glory, but they flew out the kitchen faster than it took me to prep them up! Yes, ok, I also forgot…..

If you want bread for tomorrow, you’re too late. You have until 12h00 to order for Sunday. We are THE Depot de Pain and therefore, all powerful. If only I knew how to spell the sound of maniacal laughter…….

[Sam @Samskitchen]

@chefcalum Bon courage as they say in the Auvergne. Along with ‘ An English that can cook?’ ‘It’s Sucre Sale, no?’ ‘Does this come with mint sauce?’ & other highly original (& oddly endearing) comments. Cooking professionally in France is a privilege & an eye opener!
Enjoy every moment!

And on today’s menu….
