5 Top Christmas Gifts for Foodies

By
The Kilner Drink Dispenser

What's the best thing about Christmas? It could be opening presents on Christmas morning, bratwurst and beer at the Christmas markets in Hyde Park or family and friends on Christmas day. Whatever your favourite thing, I'm not sure about you, but I always spend plenty of time cooking and preparing for the Christmas dinner and these kitchen must haves definitely make that Christmas period easier and extra special. These are proper great gifts for him and her foodies and not one rubbish filled Hamper in sight!







Buy for £107.00
1) Wusthof Kitchen Knives
I have a set of four Wusthof knives and sharpener but this starter set of three is a bit easier on the pocket. They are pricey but last forever and these knives are also used by Michelin chef Raymond Blanc - even though he wont actually mention this.
Amazon sell the above set of three £107.00










Top French Chocolate from - Valrhona

Buy for £15.00
2 Kilner Drink Dispenser

I finally found one of these 5ltr Kilner dispensers to make your own GOOD mulled wine, not the rubbish they hand out at the xmas fare. If you want one they are selling them on Amazon now.
This dispenser goes for around £20 but the one above I found is a bargain for £15.00.

Buy for £35.00

3) Valrhona Chocolate
This exceptional chocolate from the small village Tain-l'Hermitage in France is used in some of the most exclusive restaurant's in the world and its from premium chocolate maker Valrhona. This box is for serious chocolate lovers.
This tasting box above is £35.00.



The Artisan Cheese Makers Kit
Buy for £30.00

4) Cheese Maker
I've always wanted to make my own cheese, but I'd never had the gear & was a nightmare trying to find online but this is all in one!
This above kit makes a wonderful gift for £30.00.
Ultimate Gift - Kellerman Champagne Sabre 
Buy now £399.95
5) Kellerman Champagne Sabre
I love this Sabre. This is the ultimate gift for the person who has everything. This impressive show piece has a 22kt gilded hilt and comes in a wooden oak presentation box. This will always impress your guests - who doesn't love a bit of theatre, and for that someone who has everything? They won't have one of these.
This Sabre is  £399.95

Le Salon Prive Restaurant, St Margarets Twickenham

By
Le Salon Prive Restaurant, St Margarets, Twickenham La Salon Prive (The Private Lounge) is actually a newly re-invigorated, and much needed refurbished Brula - a French Bistro restaurant based in St Margaret's, Twickenham for over 15 years. The restaurant went through an ownership change back in January (the former owners having connections with other Richmond restaurants, La Buvette and A Cena, as well as Covent Garden restaurant Joe Allens). The new proprietor happens to be the same owner of a very popular Italian restaurant, Bacco, in Richmond. Bacco is one of my top Italian fine dining eats and here's a  review of Bacco  here. Entrance to Le Salon Prive, Dining Room La Salon have kept the lovely glass stained windows but have totally redone the inside. Formerly the restaurant resembled something similar to your geriatric granny's living room - it might seem charming but it really felt like it had been under-invested, incidentally a similar theme also exist

Restaurant Gordon Ramsay, Chelsea, London

By
IT STARTS as soon as you pull up outside Restaurant Gordon Ramsay, the service, that is. Staff are with you every step, at your beck and call, although there's no need to beck or call - they're always one step ahead. It may be disconcerting for some folk but if you've not experienced 3* service before, relax, enjoy it, don't fall into the trap of thinking this type of place is only frequented by fancy folk who think they're the above it all. It's a place where people are celebrating and enjoying themselves. GR has a cosy, simple and relaxed ambience, not an opulent over the top dining room as you'd expect for a 3 Michelin restaurant. It's welcoming. Lightly smoked Goose We arrived in perfect timing for our booking and were greeted with smiles and 'hello's' by numerous staff as we were shown to our table. I was pleasantly surprised to see quite a few tables already occupied considering our booking was quite early at 6.30pm. We w
