5 Top Christmas Gifts for Foodies

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

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

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

Best Places to Eat in Las Vegas | Good Kai

Best places to eat Las Vegas! Las Vegas, I haven't met a single person who doesn't love this crazy town and although most folk may refer to Vegas as sin city, they'll be surprised to learn that the town we know it as now was partially funded by a syndicate of Mormon bankers post WWII. Something to think about while you enjoy quaffing down endless free alcohol while the casinos carefully lighten your pockets on the tables or pokie machines. I'm not much of a gambler but I do appreciate this city. It is so blatantly faux yet whimsical, its over-the-top, yet it feels grander and than anywhere else in the world and the food is on a level we don't get here in London - huge spaces filled to the brim with patrons and atmosphere and fantastic customer service you only get in the USA. So if you're looking for some of the best places to chow down while in Vegas here they are. Also, check out my short Vegas travel video below. Pancakes - Bacchanal Buffet, Caesars
