@MeatOneVegBlog @tomparkerbowles I was given a recipe for tomato honey which you can add chilli too obviously which is just gorgeous with cheeses or a drizzle on pizza

We finally made it to Mimi Mei Fair back in March this year and it did not disappoint. Of course we had to pre-order their famous peking duck and their dim sum came highly recommended too.

We visited @TingLondon as a belated 10 year wedding anniversary treat back in March. Lovely meal with an amazing view for the evening. Not a bad way to spend your Friday evening. Head to our blog to take a read about what we enjoyed

Last but by no mean least on our North Yorkshire foodie weekend away last month was The Abbey Inn at Byland where we stopped off for what has to be one of the best roast dinners we have eaten out.

Next on our North Yorkshire foodie weekend last month was @Pignut_rest in Helmsley. This is a lovely little restaurant with a quiet and relaxed ambience to it and nice food served as part of their tasting menus.

We paid the Trading Rooms a visit back in February down at the Piece Hall in Halifax. This was a lovely meal with generous portions, so much so, none of us had room for dessert!

Dish of the Month - March

Check out this hand dived Orkney scallop dish at Myse in Hovingham. The scallop was perfectly cooked and served in its own shell with an amazing sea urchin butter. This was super tasty and we can easily see why it remains on their menu!

@jwalkermobile Tough gig in hospitality at the moment so I say don’t post. If the experience was bad sort it with the restaurant. If it is continually bad for all then the market will sort them out.

Another tasty lunch at Ricci’s place in Halifax. We love it here and the dishes never disappoint. Generous portions too so your definitely not going home hungry.
