V I N O T E C A 🍷 ___________ Last night I was lucky enough to go along to the @weevinoteca launch party 🎉 _________ What a great space, once an old stables, a record shop, a book shop... and now a wine shop and bar! The perfect place to enjoy great wines, a mean cheese or meat board and while away a few hours with good company, and great wine 🍷👫 ____________ If you pay Duncan and Hannah a visit (husband and wife team, along with their two gorgeous labradors) take their recommendations on what to drink. We tried a Macedonian Red and it was such a great choice, unbelievably smooth, full bodied and a little fruity. We left with several bottles, plus a few more unusual purchases including a Japanese white wine, and a Californian red dessert wine. I hope to be back very soon ___________ #wineshop #vinoteca #winetime #winebar #hitchintown #hitchin #visithertfordshire #winetastings

P A S T A L O V E 💚 ___________ This dish never gets boring ... gnocchetti sardi, Malloreddus alla Campidanese. Gnocchetti sardi cooked with a pork ragù cooked with fennel, saffron and tomatoes 🍅 ___________ I fell asleep before I could post this last night so here’s some dinner inspiration for the weekend. The recipe is on my blog 😋 ___________ What’s one of your favourite meals to cook and enjoy? 👩🏼‍🍳 ___________ #sardinianfood #malloreddus #gnochettisardi #pastapasta #pastameal #pastaalldayeveryday #recipeoftheday #dinnerinspiration #italianfoodblogger #weekendvibes #atmytable #homecook

S U N S H I N E I N A G L A S S ☀️ _________ Forget the snow, I’ve whisked myself away (mentally at least) to lemon groves and Mediterranean views with this @malfygin con limone and @fevertreemixers Sicilian Lemon Tonic ___________ The sweet smell of lemons from the gin was enough to transport me to my beloved Italy 🍋 ___________ Happy Friday all, stay warm and dream of Italy 🇮🇹 __________ #summerdreams #italiangin #malfygin #fridayfeeling #timeforgin #ginoclock #italiandreams #weekendvibes #ginofchoice #italianstyle #bigupablogger

P A S T A S H E E T S 😍 ____________ These beautiful layers of pasta sheets became beautiful layers of lasagne check out my story to see it all come together ______________ What are you cooking for friends or family this weekend? ______________ #pastasheets #freshpasta #weekendcooking #pastamaking #italiancooking #lasagne #cookingathome #atmytable #homecook #goodfoodgoodfriends

P A E L L A 🇪🇸 . ____________ Ok so not 100% traditional as I threw in some butternut squash as I didn’t want to see it go to waste, but otherwise this chicken and chorizo paella is a weeknight winner __________ #paellalovers #mediterraneandiet #spanishfood #weeknightdinner #thursdayfood #cookingathome #homecookedmeals #zerowasteuk #nofoodwasted

W I N T E R S U N D A Y S 💛 ————— Slow cooked duck ragù with homemade Pappardelle pasta 🤤 ____________ This mouthwatering dish is by the fabulous @emikodavies. This is only the second time I’ve made this, and ironically the last time was also on the 3rd Sunday of January last year. The duck, slow cooked in red wine with pancetta and soffritto, melted off the bone. This dish is a show stopper, and actually very simple to make, like all good Italian meals 🇮🇹 🍝 😋 _________ #pappardelle #handmadepasta #duckragu #emikodavies #sundaypasta #winterwarmer #showstopper #freshpastalife #sundaysareforcooking #homecook #italianfoodlover #cookingfromscratch #inmykitchen #atmytable
