  1. Go to Carmel Cheeses when you visit L'Enclume, they have lots of great British cheese and a few French.
  2. The 'Worlds 50 Best Restaurants' is a load of dribble to say the least. Granted Noma is an exceptional restaurant and one of the best meals I have eaten, is actually better than Can Roca, Fat Duck, El Bulli, Mugaritz, Per Se?? Are we saying St John is the second best restaurant in Britain to dine at? There should few more British restaurants in the top 50. When was the last time Mr Jay Rayner dinned out of London???
  3. Why did they not pick 2 of the chefs who are at the forefront of cooking in Scotland, In my opinion Martin Wishart and Andrew Fairlie. I know tom very well, most of his training has been classical french and tony serving up smoked salmon..... I know he has been getting slated for it by so many chefs in Scotland and the local paper......... So to judge the level of cooking in Scotland ---"over the border" on these guys dishes is a bit harsh. Scotland has still got a fair bit to go....but no way the difference is that great. Remember only 5.5 million people in Scotland. 7.2 million just in the center of London!!!!!! ← surely the population doesent determain the standard of food??
  4. it did in the post franco years. ← that lasted long!
  5. They should just attach a blue plaque saying 'Franco cooked here' and turn it into a private house. Or if a restaurant, change the name. The Walnut Tree was a unique place in time. It's gone. S ← so does that mean that it is no longer worthy of having a good reputation and serving good food under another chef(s)?
  6. sure the food and place will be back to its former self with roger at the helm!!
  7. Whatever it is, it's tossage. ← or maybe he's just adding a little humour into the dining experience....maybe you should try broading your mind a little!!!
  8. Ola, i'm thinking of spending a few days in the lakes with my wife, im going to eat at l'enclume...have made a couple of enquires, £50 for 10 courses, £70 for 15, & £120 for 24 courses is very good value for money. Its very hard to find a simular restaurant in the uk at the same standard for such a reasonable price. Im very excited to eat there, maybe you should be a little more open minded.
