Flambéd apple tart to finish, drama! . . . #bristol #bristolfood #bristolfoodie #eatbristol #theivycliftonbrasserie #clifton #cliftonvillage #appletart #flambé

[Invited meal] Properly got into the festive spirit at The Ivy in Clifton last week, starting with double parking drinks (their Winter Bellini and a reallllly good Pinot Noir picked out by one of the team), followed by steak tartare for me and lobster risotto for my pal, then sea bream with Champagne sauce for me, and a beautifully cooked fillet of beef for my friend. We ended on a flambéd apple tart (video to follow!) and cheese board to share, lovely stuff! Who's been in since they put up all of their lush decorations? #ad #invited . . . #theivycliftonbrasserie #theivy #bristol #bristolfood #bristolfoodie #eatbristol #foodgram #clifton #cliftonvillage #bristollife #merrybristmas #visitbristol

It doesn't get much more comforting than the rice bowl at @wingsdiner 😍 I am obsessed with that garlicky blue rice, and the srirachanaise! . . . #bristol #bristolfood #bristolfoodie #eatbristol #foodgram #wingsdiner #smallbarbristol #smallbar #bristolfoodanddrink #friedchicken #bristollunch #wrigglebristol #visitbristol #hellobristol #bristol247 #crumbssnaps #crumbsmag #bestofbristol #bristollife #bristollove #bristolindies

The food in Peru - probably the thing this country is best known for other than the Incas. Home to several of the world's best restaurants (for you Chef's Table fans, I walked past Central but didn't have the balls to eat there on my own), it has a great variety of local and national dishes depending on which region you're in. The coast has a lot more seafood dishes, especially the famous ceviche and tirradito, which is more thinly sliced fish, similar to sashimi but with light seasoning. Corn is used everywhere; roasted as bar snacks, fried or boiled as a side dish, mashed and sweetened as a drink (Chiche Morada is a popular drink made from purple corn, like a lighter Ribena) or ground as flour. Goat, chicken and duck are also popular, with specialities such as river trout and cuy (guinea pig) in the mountains. Sweet stuff is big here, with sugary snacks including jam and majar blanco (a creamier dulce de leche) everywhere, my favourites being a filled churro or tres leches cake 😍 I also drank a fair few Pisco Sours (classic and flavoured with a variety of tropical fruits which grow here including passion fruit and physalis, and some I'd never heard of like Lúcuma), glad I did a Pisco tasting too as it's the national drink and due to being distilled from grapes has a wide range of flavours depending on the grape and the region they were grown in. You can eat well for a pittance in Peru, and the food is generally quite mild in terms of spice (they're happy to dollop some chilli sauce or fresh chilli on for you though!). . . . #peru #perufood #peruvianfood #lima #limafood #eatlima #perucomida #limaperu #peruvian #peruanas

Peru was amazing, from the dusty desserts of Lambayeque with my family to the mountains around Cajamarca, beach at Pimentel and the dramatic cliffs and historic buildings of Lima. Shame I didn't get to do Cuzco or Machu Pichu on this visit, but if there's one thing I've learnt over the past 3 weeks it's that there is a ridiculous amount to see in Peru. Not only do they have sites and artefacts from over 8000 years of civilisation, but the terrain varies massively from the coast to the Andes and even the Amazonian jungle! I've put my stories in a highlight on my profile in case you're interested - food pics incoming... . . . #peru #lima #cajamarca #pimentel #cumbemayo #latinamerica #southamerica #perutravel #visitperu #visitlima
