How good is Aldi’s latest wine offer? A great idea for an Easter brunch, a brilliantly cool Mexican bar and a last minute offer on my first LIVE masterclass

I have to admit I’m totally discombobulated this week. I’ve been unusually jet-lagged with a painfully stiff neck (OK, I realise I’m not going to get much sympathy for that though any suggestions as to what type of practitioner I should go to to rectify it would be appreciated. Acupuncture hasn’t worked this time 😫.)

I really want to write about what I’ve found out about Mauritian food but I suspect what you want know about right now is what wines to buy for Easter.

As I predicted - supermarkets are falling over each other to undercut their competitors - but none more so than Aldi which has cut prices on some of its lines by up to 50%. 

I also have a great idea from Valencia for an Easter brunch and news of a brilliant mezcaleria (Mexican bar) which doesn’t involve you flying to Mexico.

So those Aldi wine offers … which are worth buying?

If you’re hesitating to sign up the savings you’d make on the bottles I’m recommending would cover the cost of a month’s subscription at the very least. Just sayin’ . . . 😉
