Remembering Summer 2008

This is one from the vaults. I was digging around my computer and found some of the pictures that I took over the summer. Of course, this was before I realized I could take macro shots. The first two rows of images are from Taste of Bath. The last image is from the Bristol Wine and Food Festival.



First Row Left to Right: Roast scallop, lemon balm puree and cumin (The Bath Priory Hotel), Futomaki - soft shell crab, kimchi, spring onion, avocado, chili mayonnaise (Bodukan), Grilled Devon scallops with garlic butter (Fish Works)

Second Row Left to Right: Mini beef Wellington with foie gras, wild mushrooms and a Madeira jus (The Hole in the Wall), Whole confit leg of Gressingham duck, with pineapple chutney and a cucumber and coriander salad (The Hole in the Wall), 28-day aged fillet of Staffordshire beef, Hudson Bearnaise, Malden salt and pepper frites (Hudson Steakhouse and Grill)
