ON THE TABLE

What we’ve been enjoying in the world of food and travel

The Barbary Next Door, the little sister to The Barbary restaurant, in London’s Neal’s Yard. Highlights of the Middle Eastern/north African-inspired menu included a delicious take on Tunisian fricasse and a tangy, citrussy sea bass crudo.

I’VE BEEN DRINKING…

One of my favourite cocktails, the jungle bird. All the best attributes of rum, Campari, pineapple juice and lime come together in a refreshing, complex blend that’s way too easy to drink. Zane Henry, project editor

I’VE BEEN USING…

Cured egg yolks instead of parmesan. I bathe them in salt before rinsing and then drying them out in the oven on a very low temperature. Grate them over pasta dishes, salads or soups for an umami kick. Lauren Gamp, art editor

I’VE BEEN READING…

Burp: The Other Wine Book. It’s full of stylish illustrations and photography, as well as snappy insights into 40 wines from around the world

— all selected for their interesting backstory and equally interesting labels. Lauren Atkinson-smith, art editor
