It was a hot day where I live, until it rained this afternoon. Suddenly the temperature dropped and it felt like the perfect weather for a cup of steaming Masala Chai and bowl full of Bhelpuri (pictured above)! Yum, yum! What made it perfect was that our friends were over and we ate and drank together. Nothing like sharing the good stuff with good friends.

It’s time to get creative and put your marketing skills to work. Develop a barrage of blizzard specials, or create a buffet menu. Tweet your customers, Facebook your friends and reconnect with your regulars to move that food.

This year marks the 50th anniversary of the Woolworth’s lunch counter sit-ins in Greensboro NC (pictured) which set off a wave of similar protests across the South and turned the tide against segregated eating facilities. But these were far from the first such actions. Integration of American eating places came about from a patchwork of regulations that sometimes successfully impeded discrimination and by the courageous actions of individuals and groups, black and white, who negotiated with, sued, picketed, and physically occupied restaurants beginning in the 1870s.

The screaming, day-glo Ed’s Easy Diner sits at one end of Old Compton Street, its juvenile décor rather out of kilter with the very adult bars and restaurants in the immediate area. Don’t get me wrong – there’s always a place in the world for a neon rocket, and it’s hard not to be a little bit charmed by the sheer audacity of this chrome-plated Liberace of a restaurant, but it’s hard to avoid the sense of superficiality. Trying too hard

Gwyneth Paltrow wrote a new article in the GOOP website about her favourite kid-friendly restaurants in New York, LA, London and Chicago. From the London restaurants, she suggested La Famiglia for its “beautiful outside patio where kids can enjoy the trees and the pasta and fried zucchini”; The Wolseley as a great place to take kids to for brunch, lunch or tea; The River Cafe for a perfect summer Sunday and Tom’s Kitchen is said to have “the best eggs Benedict and the spongiest pancakes”

It is said that of all the major cuisines of China, Teochew food is probably the most suitable for the Japanese palate. The emphasis on freshness of seafood and the use of simple flavours to highlight the original flavour of the produce is very similar. When I was at Tsukiji market last year, I realise that both cultures also have a strong fishcake culture

There’s nothing like a plate of hot Palak-Methi Muthiyas with a cup of Chai on a rainy evening!

The first time word started circulating on the Twittersphere that a new, independent burger bar was opening in London, serving “authentic West-Coast” American-style burgers, I was mildly ecstatic. I realise that in London the bar is set pretty low for quality burgers, and I was probably being hopelessly naive to assume that anywhere would open to challenge the prevailing mediocre orthodoxy, but I did, I admit, allow myself a short period of frantic optimism. My God, imagine if somewhere actually got it right

What better way to spend a lazy Sunday afternoon than in the pub for hours eating the most delicious Sunday lamb roast I’ve had since I moved to London, drinking hot chocolate with marshmallows and playing a hilarious game of Monopoly with good friends? Here’s a thumbs-up recommendation for Garden Gate in Hampstead for letting us hang about all afternoon and for serving up some awesome food

Many restaurants in Liverpool suffer from what I like to call ‘Tall Building Syndrome’. Not many of them are very tall though, so perhaps this requires further explanation. It was Andy Hayler , I believe, who noted the tendency for the quality of food to decline in direct proportion to altitude – so taking the most extreme example of airline meals, served at 35,000ft and usually inedible, down to revolving restaurants and the like who rely on stunning views to distract from the horrors on the table, right down to basement gastronomic palaces such as Le Gavroche and The Greenhouse who seem to be trying extra hard with their cuisine to make up for the lack of natural light.

Biryani nicely made, is a pleasure to behold and eat! Fragrant long-grained rice is layered with meat or vegetables that have been cooked in a mixture of spices. This has to be one of my favorite foods! With Biryani, it is not just the taste that has me going ga-ga! I love how it is a meal in one dish! My Biryani can be made with chicken, mutton, goat meat or mixed vegetables! My personal favorite however, is goat meat so I’ve used it in this recipe. FServe my Biryani with a yogurt Raita and Kachumbar salad.

Chilled tofu with spring onion (£4.50) A few weeks ago, I’d read on Eat Noodles Love Noodles (an excellent blog written by “Mr. Noodles”) that Keelung restaurant (which I’d enjoyed despite its drubbing by the pros) had reinvented itself as a Szechuan restaurant called the Empress of Sichuan .

At the risk of offending anyone I have to say I find this one of the worst themes ever. I almost feel I don’t need to elaborate, that everyone is thinking “I agree.” Not only is the decor corny and the “atmosphere” non-existent, but the kitchen is usually totally lacking in ambition if not turning out food that is downright bad

There are quite a few dishes that I miss from Australia. Good Vietnamese Pho, really spicy north Indian curries, Laksa, and Kabak Mucveri. Now the latter is a Turkish dish, and you would think that being in Europe (and not that far from Turkey) it would be easy to get, but I haven’t been able to find it, and even if I could, I suspect it would be a disappointment compared to the Kabak Mucveri in my fave Turkish restaurant in Canberra.
