Boar off

Wild boar pie and mash at The Tommyfield in Kennington. It had a little pastry pig on the top of it.

Ketchup-bombed

Poor croissant :(

Something fishy

A rubbish picture of my mackerel salad. Blurry.

Hot sausage

The other night, I made Ravinder Bhogal's really delicious sausage roast. One of the best bits was making the lovely winey, oniony, balsamic vinegary gravy.

As Rav herself says, you "can't go wrong with a hot sausage". Ravinder's got a book out! It's ace.

Two ’ages

This is what I'm cooking for tonight's tea. It's a cabbage and sausage hotpot from the book Spooning With Rosie. I made some adjustments to the recipe, mainly for convenience, but also because I'm only cooking for two and not four. (The original recipe calls for 12 sausages and I used a bag of ready-chopped green cabbage, mixed with leeks instead of the white cabbage in the recipe. Lazy). So it's probably not quite as Rosie would make it. (I also added garlic, some chilli and a bit of cinnamon). Anyway. It seems tasty enough. Hurry home, @disappointment!

Sunday best

A fry-up at Canteen (never had such a cress-heavy full English breakfast before) then a lovely lamb roast at the recently refurbished The Ship in Kennington. My companion had the beef. Now what's for tea?

Roll with it

Some chicken thighs in tomato sauce from Marks & Spencers, eaten while watching Nigella cook "an unusual slow-cooked melt in the mouth Asian Braised Shin of Beef topped with a crisp hot and sour shredded salad".

The spirit of the (saus)age

Some snacky sausages for a Saturday night at Zeitgeist @ The Jolly Gardeners. I love how the sausages are presented to look like they're in bed together, their meaty heads resting on a mustard sachet pillow.

Twin dins

A pair of chicken dinners.

Domenica

An Italian-themed Sunday tea. Bruschetta followed by Disappointment's hearty lasagne.

Nagasaki dolls are burning

A delicious curry in The Coriander on Kennington lane. I plumped for the jhal puri, followed by the special lamb chops. My dining companion had the chicken cooked in a naga chilli sauce. Hot.

Give us this day our daily bread sauce

A roast chicken Sunday dinner, at the White Hart in Kennington. The veg especially was delicious, but they'd run out of bread sauce.

Sandwich course

A three-sandwich weekend. From the top:
1. Sausage (they forgot the ketchup, but I found some chilli sauce on the next table) at the Madeira Star in Kennington.
2. A taleggio and onion or something toastie at Concrete next to the Hayward Gallery. It came with some nice mustard and dill coleslaw.
3. Sausage and ketchup at Vergie's in Kennington.
I think if I really put my mind to it, I could manage about six sandwiches per weekend in future. Maybe even nine on a Bank Holiday.

A tuna day

A tasty, but not inexpensive, tuna sandwich at the Imperial War Museum Café.

Archives Of Pain (au chocolat)

A pain au chocolat, or chocolate croissant, or chocolatine, from the new café on Kennington Road. I don't know what it's called, but it's where Jados or Judos or Jedis used to be and after that, the short-lived Dippy Egg.

We were on our way to the Dippy Egg last June, when we got snapped by the Google Streetview car. Excitement. Next time, I'll remember to hold my belly in.
