Last night Francie and I managed to get ourselves some free tickets to the Love Cooking event happening at the Royal Festival Hall. We went to see the Huge Fearnley Whittingstall show, Spade! Fork! Spoon!
We walked there along the south bank which was beautiful!
The event started off with a rather strange discussion about different sorts of apples. At this point we were wondering what we had let ourselves in for but when Huge came out the evening livened up, especially for Huge as he enjoyed a couple of bottles of what looked like some very nice cider!
He cooked an amazing apple cake, butternut and peanut butter soup, Mussels with Bacon and Leeks and venison and pork burgers. We were kicking ourselves that we were not closer to the front so we could get called up onto stage and try out the food! We are already discussing evenings to get together and try out his recipes!
We left on a massive high which was then dampened considerably by the tube strike combined with a long cold and dark wait for the bus to take us back home!
