There are many places in London that serve steak frites, but Le Relais has always been my number 1. It’s just impossible to beat. The only place that gives you two generous servings of crispy fries, thinly sliced and grilled entrecôte along with the very best sauce in the game. Simple, consistent and so comforting. I always leave feeling full and satisfied. Make sure you ask for extra sauce.. #notoriousfoodie 🙅🏽♂️

Nothing like a cosy dinner in the grill room here. Definitely my favourite room in the Devonshire. Something about that roaring log burner and the sizzling sound of steak just creates a lovely atmosphere for either lunch or dinner. Couldn’t decide between the 1.1KG T-bone and the 1.4KG beef chop but went for the chop and it was a great choice. Lovely crust all round, mature beefy flavour and tender in texture. The peppercorn sauce was the chosen one for the side, not too reduced and sticky - just the right consistency. If you’re dining here the must order for me is that pile of langoustines. They are bought directly off the boat in Oban, Scotland - honestly incredible flavour. They are just so sweet and delicious - cooked over embers so they take on a deep smokiness. I could have an entire plate of these things. On the side, it always has to be those buttered carrots, creamed leeks and the bacon/pea number. Few pubs do it properly but this is one of them. Sticky toffee for dessert is always the answer! #notoriousfoodie 🙅🏽♂️

A visit to La Mère Germain in Villefranche-sur-Mer, a small fishing port between Nice and Monaco. Opened in 1938, this restaurant on the water’s edge has been a favourite in the town for many years, specialising in seafood and their very famous bouillabaisse. It was the Dover sole meunière here that did it for me though. Beautifully prepared. Gently dusted with flour and pan-fried in brown-butter before being finished with lemon juice and parsley. Perfectly golden brown all over and served with ultra soft, well seasoned new potatoes. The fish was tender and meaty. Nutty and ever so slightly sweet. The pale pink bones pulled away with ease. Simple and so delicious. A friend of mine told me that the lobster carpaccio was incredible here so ordered that too. He was right. A very delicate carpaccio with plenty of olive oil, lemon juice, dill, radish and small pieces of grapefruit. Just the right balance of sweetness and acidity. All you really need here are their super fresh raw plates and that Dover sole. If you’re in to bouillabaisse, make sure to get that too! #notoriousfoodie 🙅🏽♂️

There are very few restaurants as charming as this one. Located on the outskirts of Nice is La Chamuière. A restaurant with a focus on utilising the best seasonal produce, speciality meat and the Woodfire grill. It’s a fairly intimate spot that’s dimly lit, with a big butchers block at the centre of the dining room. I only really go here during summer but it’s such a nice vibe for dinner. The grill master has been grilling meat here for over 20 years and his ability to perfectly cook so many things at once is impressive. I went for their famous duck, as well as the A5 Kagoshima rib cap - couldn’t resist the wag, it looked too beautiful. The duck was insane. Edge to edge pink with the most beautiful crust. Perfectly rendered, tender and smokey. It’s wild how he cooks it. Directly over the fire for parts, and then off to the back for lower temp cooking with one final blast at the end. Served with woodfired potatoes and the best local cream. The starters here are as good as the meat. That focaccia with heirloom tomatoes, truffles and prosciutto is just unreal - one of the most amazing bites. Excellent black summer truffles this season - super fragrant and with lots of flavour. They really added some oomph to the baked Camembert and focaccia. There’s a lot I could talk about here.. but just go and eat at this place when you can. It’s good #notoriousfoodie

Back in France and made a quick stop at African Queen for dinner. It’s a nice vibe here in the evenings with plenty on the menu. Some good, some great with a few standouts. Their warm prawns are delicious, as is their truffle pizza which is one of the best in town. For me though it’s that foie gras with brioche and fig jam that is one of their stand outs. The foie is so rich and creamy. It spreads with ease over the brioche and the sweet fig jam just complements the umami so perfectly. For main course, it’s the Maison Perrin Niçois ravioli - hearty beef-filled parcels of bite-sized pasta, tossed in a glossy beef reduction. It’s intense and comforting to eat - a really enjoyable dish that has a super meaty punch. The vongole on this visit wasn’t quite there though, a little bland and very overcooked spaghetti. The farm chicken on the other hand, delicious. Nicely roasted and carved table-side, served with a truffle jus on the side. This place has been around for so many years, it’s good to see it with new life and energy! #notoriousfoodie 🙅🏽♂️

An amazing few days at my favourite hotel. Nothing like chilling on the deck here from morning through to evening. A few lahmacun, some pide and their unbelievable watermelon juice is all you really need to get through the day. The hotel is sort of tucked into the hillside, so when you look from afar, you don’t really see any rooms, just the lower deck and beautiful green and pink flora. It’s a very cool space that makes you feel like you’re right at home from the moment you walk in. Great food and a buzzing yet relaxed atmosphere day to night is what makes this place so special. It’s kept me coming back for years. They have a few days of the week here where they serve specials during lunch service. Saturday is my personal fave, with huge homemade döner rotating on the spit - it’s nuts. Perfectly charred and thinly sliced, piled up high. The Manti is excellent too. The best! #notoriousfoodie 🙅🏽♂️

Their doors are finally open in Mayfair. The team that brought you 2-Michelin starred Gymkhana have been working hard on their new concept and it’s now up and running in full swing. A slightly more casual affair but no less impressive than Gymkhana, Ambassadors Clubhouse celebrates the dynamic cuisine of the Punjab region. There are a number of small plates, chaat and papads to start. For main course, a lovely variety of dishes on the grill with three different options of either tandoor (clay oven), Sigri (charcoal grilled) or Tawa (flat-top). Lots of the classic kebabs and spiced, roasted meats in this section. My favourites were those sensational grilled butter chicken wings in makhani sauce along with the Ajwaini prawns and lamb nalli. In between all of this goodness you’ll find the matka, karahi and biryani. It’s really a menu that hits all avenues of Punjabi cuisine and there’s a lot to try, so go hungry. The matka beliram lamb curry is the must order dish from the curries - ultra soft baby lamb that was so tender, covered in a deeply spiced tomato based gravy. Those who know will order a Tusker as soon as they see it on the menu. If you’re going for a lager, this is the only thing you should be ordering! A cool vibe downstairs for late night Indian funk! #notoriousfoodie 🙅🏽♂️

Back at my favourite place. Nothing quite like starting the day here and sitting out on the deck till the early evening. It’s a place I visit every year and it’s become an essential part of my summer. Café Med is their new lunchtime offering, serving up a lovely Mediterranean-Turkish menu throughout the afternoon. Plenty of the freshest seafood like vongole and lobster to their irresistible Lahmacun and pide. Courgette fritti and dondurma ice cream wafers here are a must. Macakizi Restaurant just upstairs gained a Michelin Star earlier this year, as well as opening a new fine dining concept @aylamacakizi - lots going on for them at the moment! Head chef Aret is really pushing the boundaries of Turkish cuisine with a fresh, interesting and refined menu that utilises ingredients from across the region. More from this trip soon! #notoriousfoodie 🙅🏽♂️

Stopped into Istanbul for the night and headed straight to my favourite butcher shop and steakhouse @dukkansteak - This really is a local hangout and I’ll be honest, the burgers are the main reason to go here. The patties are formed from their secret blend of beef that is all dry-aged in house and contains a great amount of fat. They’re smashed and grilled over charcoal before being sliced in half and then grilled face down for an intensely Smokey bite. Just add a little flakey salt and chow downSteaks are a little hit and miss, they don’t often rest the meat so it can be tough - that was very much the case on this visit! A shame as it was leaking juices and not the most tender T bone. For dessert, a huge slab of dark choc that you need to crack into with a knife so that large shards fall off. Very cool! Stayed at @bebekhotelbythestay this night - cool hotel, feels like you’re on a boat. Loved vibe in there. Next stop, Bodrum! #notoriousfoodie 🙅🏽♂️

A heavenly spread. Easily my favourite Chinese in London. Everyone has their go-to but this is where I always find myself going back to. The Peking duck is top tier, prepared the traditional way with ultra crispy, golden lacquered skin, translucent pancakes, deeply sweet hoisin, spring onions & cucumbers. For second course, their duck lettuce wraps with the remaining off-cuts is the best. They stir fry the remaining duck and serve it with fresh crisp lettuce cups - a lighter but equally tasty way to enjoy it. Their Siulong bao soup dumplings are always phenomenal - filled with a warming and rich broth and tender pork mince. For mains, their sweet and sour chicken is the must order. So many good items on the menu here.. charsiu bao, sizzling pepper beef, tiger prawn toast to name a few. Best of all.. any leftovers are just as good for takeaway #notoriousfoodie 🙅🏽♂️
