Russell’s Blog
My musings and ramblings! An extension of the Twitter account, recipes, restaurants, work, travel, maybe even my Sunday lunch.
One way and another I have done more and more writing over the last few years and I’m really enjoying having time to focus on this. I am contributing regularly to magazines such as the Caterer and Just About Dorset, but the blog is a chance to cover more diverse subjects – visits to growers, some of our travels, new recipes, occasional book reviews and some pieces about the work I am doing are a few areas I will be covering.
The guest blog section is where I prevail on friends and colleagues, most of them in the food industry, to share their thoughts, stories and experiences with us. Exciting, vibrant and diverse are words I’d use to sum things up on the guest blog and it isn’t all food related either!
I want to say a massive “thank you” to all those who have agreed to participate and I am sure that these contributions will be a big part of the interest in this website. Lots of these people have their own websites, blogs and books so please follow the links to see much more. If you are interested in guest blogging please email me at russell@CreativeAboutCuisine.com
Eat Jersey 2016
Eat Jersey 2016 3-6th NOVEMBER
I have been lucky enough to visit Jersey many times over the years. It is an easy place to get to from Dorset and a real delight when you are there; beautiful beaches, great coastal walking and, of course, it has some superb food on offer. There is a huge choice, from excellent Michelin-starred restaurants to beachside bistros and the central market in St Helier always has plenty to offer for a sumptuous picnic.
Last year I visited in November to take part in the first Eat Jersey Food Festival at The Atlantic Hotel, This was a real treat and I am delighted to see that this year’s event is looking so spectacular.
Over the course of four days, diners can choose to attend four gastronomic events at The Atlantic Hotel’s Michelin-starred Ocean Restaurant, as well as a relaxed beachside feast at sister restaurant Mark Jordan at the Beach.
An addition for this year is an exclusive pop up restaurant on Saturday 5th November in partnership with Outlaw’s at The Capital. A collaborative menu of beautifully crafted seafood dishes will be available for both lunch and dinner service.
The line-up of celebrated guest chefs for the weekend’s events are:
- Tom Brown, Outlaw’s at The Capital (One Michelin Star, Three AA Rosettes)
- Andrew Fairlie, Andrew Fairly Restaurant at Gleneagles (Two Michelin Stars, Four AA Rosettes)
- André Garrett, André Garrett Restaurant at Cliveden House (Three AA Rosettes)
- Simon McKenzie, The Brasserie Restaurant at The Old Government House Hotel & Spa, Guernsey
- Matthew Peryer, The Restaurant at Lewtrenchard Manor, Devon
- Steve Smith, Bohemia at The Club Hotel & Spa, Jersey (One Michelin Star, Four AA Rosettes)
- Robert Thompson, Thompson’s, Isle of Wight
- Nicolas Valmagna, Tassili at Grand Jersey Hotel & Spa (Three AA Rosettes)
In addition, Mark will be joined by Jarek Nowakowski, newly appointed Head Pastry Chef at The Atlantic Hotel.
An exclusive ‘Lobster and Burger’ dining event at Mark Jordan at the Beach rounds off Eat Jersey 2016 on Sunday 6th November. Situated on the shoreline with breath-taking coastal views, the beachside bistro will showcase Mark Jordan’s signature Jersey beef burger and freshly caught lobster to guests in a relaxed and welcoming setting, led by Head Chef Tamas Varsanyi.
