SEAFOOD ~ When I see food, I eat it! An oldie but a goodie!! Last week I headed along to a beautiful seafood dinner with @seafoodfromscotland cooked by Chef @markheirs with cocktails using @arbikiedistillery vodka. It's difficult to pair cocktails with seafood but for most part the pairings were spot on enhancing or changing the salty or sweet notes in the food/cocktails or both. Scotland has some, well actually alot, of the best seafood in the world. This evening we tasted Scottish salmon, Scottish scallops, mackerel, crab and cod. Great to see so many of our chefs at the table : Chef Colin Hinds from Edinburghs No1 seafood restaurant @kiltedlobster and a host of Masterchef/Great British menu participants/finalists : Ben Reade @edinburghfoodstudio, Chef Dean Banks @haarrestaurant, Chef Jacqueline O'Donnell from Sisters Restaurant and @gmacchef. . . . #tartanspoon #seafood #seafoodpairing #seafoodScotland #seafoodshowcase #seafoodlove #fish #scallops #salmon #cod #crab #mackerel #scotlandfoodanddrink #scottishseafood #scotland #seatoplate #edfringe2019 #lovescottishseafood #cocktailpairing #vodka #foodie #igersEdinburgh #discoverunder10k #igers10k #edinburghfoodbloggers #chefs #scottishchefs

100% perfectly cooked ribeye steaks from @buenasadosteakhouse in Reading, Berkshire. The meat is from grass fed cattle that feed on the Las Palmas plains. Some of the best beef in the world.

The food at @lady_libertine_ has a strong Persian, North African and Mediterranean influence and as I read through the menu, I so wanted it all to be fabulous ~and for the most part, it was! . . . #tartanspoon #byzantine #middleeasternfood #mezze #hummus #heresmyfood #healthyfoodchoices #tastingtable #thatsdarling #tasty #delicious #foodgasm #mediterraneanfood #foodbible #instafood #zaatar #labneh #levantfood #foodblogfeed #foodblogger
