Petit Fours #9

Seared Duck Breast with Smoked Confit Bon Bons

At the end of the month, we share our 'Petit Fours': notable, bite-sized pieces of life in our kitchen and beyond. We have been a bit lax around here of late, so this one covers February and March. One thing we haven't been lax on is indulging, as you'll see below. What have you foodies been up to?

The rest


Tapas Night with the guys - everyone brought a dish, and as always there was too much delicious, delicious food.
Maybe it was all the eating out, but we've been more creative in the kitchen this past month, aiming to up our fine dining game. M served up some corkers, which you'll have seen if you follow us on Instagram.
We had a weekend away in Rye for their local annual event, Scallop Week. More on that in imminent posts.
We visited the INCREDIBLE Moomin Exhibition at the Southbank Centre in London. Highly recommend!
After saving up bones, sourcing ingredients on our trip to Hong Kong, and storing a mass of homemade toridashi stock in the freezer for months, we finally made a beautiful ramen.

* We bought ourselves a mini deep fat fryer and now we can cook pure, unadulterated filth and we love it.
