How to create an Instagram-worthy cheese board, where to go for great dimsum and why you should be drinking highballs
If you’re an instagram user you’ll be familiar with those extraordinary cheese and meat platters which are almost like a portable deli counter. I’ve never made one myself but am inspired to this week by an excellent post from Australian food writer Jill Dupleix who talks you through how to put one together.
(The photo above isn’t hers by the way. You can’t just nick fellow writers’ content but do check out her really excellent tips.)
I’m also sharing a great dimsum discovery, urging you to make a highball (and get into Japanese whiskey), giving you my recipe for last year’s TikTok sensation, baked feta and tomato pasta and encouraging you to drink Beaujolais. (Yes, in July, not November!)
