Guys, it’s been a great night. I am SMUG. 👶 #smug #ID #babyface

I feel very smug. Actually had an order in my McDonald’s app and willed myself away.

Ended up with this kind of tuna rice bowl thing with last night’s rice and a few tasty bits and pieces.

Food is so expensive now!!! I get that this is Waitrose so not necessarily a balanced example but even so… reduced to these prices? #costofliving #foodprices

Kickstarting a foodie weekend with lunch at QBao in #Cardiff. I had the beef ribs noodle soup and it was delicious. Made a slight tit of myself trying to drink the broth with the big wooden ladle but could you blame me?

Loving our garden, and thankful to the previous owners who clearly knew what they were doing. Unfortunately we don’t so this is the best it’s ever going to look! 😂

Do you follow Dinner with Jon on TT or IG? He’s great, and has a new cookbook out, which I was kindly sent by Meze publishing.

Here’s his rather yummy Marmite & Cheddar Welsh Rarebit! 🤤

If you like Zapiekanka (Polish open sandwiches), I tried and loved Big Mamma’s sandwich shop on Cowbridge Road East in Cardiff today! It was absolutely delicious and Big Mamma is a brilliant character! We loved her! 😊 🇵🇱

Tried this #japchae from Starty Mart - it’s super fast ti to and the flavour is good but the noodles mostly broke up on heating and texture was a bit gloopy. Good to try but probably won’t buy again. 5/10.

80 years after the rest of you, I finally got my hands on an M&S big daddy pistachio.

And… underwhelm. Not pistachio-y enough and far too sweet for my unfortunately. 😢

Do you have a #memorablemeal - one that you’ll never forget?

For me, it was a rainy night in Seoul, 2018. We ate pork bbq under a canopy, surrounded by locals who’d just got off work. The food was stunning, the atmosphere amazing and I don’t think I’ve ever felt that happy.

I’m watching #BadInfluence on #Netflix, it’s about kid influencers and the pressure of their parents. As an 80’s baby I grew up in a very different world and it’s just shocking to watch!! 🫣😫

Tried Brownie God for the first time yesterday. Looks dry, is anything but. Absolutely delish but not cheap but a lovely treat!
