Lets face it, Marks & Spencer is a Christmas institution, which is not necessarily where you want to spend Christmas. But if it was the only place still open on Christmas Eve, then there are some choices I would make on the foodie gift front. Actually, some of these are definitely worth turning up for [...]

Presents for men, gifts for girls, but what about the foodies?

November 17th, 2009 · No Comments · BBQs, Christmas foodie gifts, Foodie gadgets, Foodie gifts, Kitchenwares, Places to shop online

Dr T hates this time of year, as catalogues flood through the letterbox, but I consider them research. He always has a sneaky look through the Presents for Men one though, normally for a laugh. So without all sorts of cooking cliches, is there anything in here, and its sister publication Gifts for the Girls, [...]

Christmas foodie gifts on a budget but still with taste!

November 15th, 2009 · 2 Comments · Baking, Christmas foodie gifts, Foodie gadgets, Foodie gifts, Indian Food, Ingredients, Kitchenwares, Places to shop online

I came across an article about budget Christmas gifts for chefs for under $30 which I thought was interesting, and wondered if you could convert this to the UK. And also if we would think they were great gifts. 1. A set of ramekins. Well, I would guess these rank good on the useful scale, [...]

There are a few aromas that you cannot beat when you open your front door, and baking bread has to be one of them. Beloved trick of estate agents I know, but just such an amazing smell. So, as it’s National Baking Week, maybe bread is a great gift to give. If you don’t have [...]

Amazon lead us into temptation…

October 7th, 2009 · No Comments · Christmas foodie gifts, Cookbooks, Foodie gifts

I think you might have gathered by now that I rather like my cook books, and the groaning bookshelves would bear testament to that. So I guess I really don’t need an offer from Amazon of 50% off a whole heap of new titles! What to choose? I mean, Nigel Slater was the first cookery [...]

At last! Christmas foodie gifts with taste!

October 5th, 2009 · 1 Comment · British favourites, Christmas foodie gifts, Cookbooks, Foodie gifts, Meat treats, Places to shop online, Savoury gifts, Uncategorized

When Santa’s elves sent out the first foodie gifts for Christmas this year, I wasn’t over impressed. The blueberry vodka filled glass stiletto still makes me shudder now.
