You can buy it online if you wanted to - have a look at:

www.thefishsociety.co.uk

and click on Not Fish on the left handside. They also sell carrageen moss which has been mentioned a lot recently by some chefs.

LOL Pete! It really isn't that far and you could take a bus or taxi if you needed to but the traffic on the Upper Richmond Road/A3 is so bad it is quicker to walk!

Meant to say it is a 15 minute walk from East Putney tube station, which is on the District line.

You can Google for Capital studios to get their telephone number if you want to.

David, I sat in the audience last year at the Good Food Show and we didn't need tickets - you just need to start queuing early to get in.

There are three beetroot cake recipes on this site you might want to look at if you fancy something sweet as opposed to completely savoury.

Just had a look at the restaurant's website and the dish is Roast Maldon Partridge - so must be Partridge cooked/baked with Maldon sea salt. The menu looks delicious - are you going to go JaybeeV6?

I am convinced I posted on this yesterday Confused Anyway, there are a few rabbit recipes on here and there is an Aldo Zilli dish that is served with tagliatelle - Coniglio al Forno.

I think it was Vingt Quatre on the Fulham Road:

It also happens to be Seafood Week 1st - 8th October, organised by the Sea Fish Industry Authority, and is being headed up by AWT as well as supported by Mitch Tonks and Rick Stein (blimey, I really am full of useless information today) - will GFL be doing anything for this?

Or being a cress I should imagine it will be easy to grow:

That site sells seeds for both green and red shiso (Perilla).

Hi, I am sure it is called Shiso cress and it seems that it is found on many top restaurant menus - probably explains why it is considered 'trendy'. As to where you can buy it, sorry can't help but if it is Japanese then maybe a specialised Oriental grocer could help?

I went straight to my email to look and mine is spelt correctly! Weird, eh? Just spoken to a friend who also gets the newsletter and hers is spelt incorrectly. We even sent each other our respective newsletters to see!

This is the official site for the show:

Don't know if GFL will be there this year but should imagine they will be. As for tickets, do you mean to watch GFL? It is just a case of getting there early and queuing - was lucky enough to sit in the audience last year when James Martin, Lesley Waters, Simon Rimmer and Ken Hom were on.

Thanks for that Essex Girl - it was Hels Bels that was asking and it was Michael Moore's restaurant I think. Hope Hels Bels sees your post!

Well, if you are wrong Lil'Abby then I am too as I do exactly the same as you!

Yes please Terry188, I would love your recipe. I adore Indian food and I love cooking it - the more authentic the better!

I agree with Rustie - when I used the term Troll it was for people that purely come here to be offensive and abusive. Calling someone by a name other than their log-in name and then being deliberately offensive about that person - which is what happened last night.

As to comments about GFL presenters - there is a big difference between constructive criticism and being offensive, which is what I was trying to say in my original post. We can post saying that a presenter is not right for that particular programme or maybe they should stop playing the guitar or that they should unfold their arms and say more is one thing. To say I don't like a presenter because of the way they eat or the mere fact that I can't stand the sight of them is surely quite another?

I certainly did not mean that we shouldn't post our views on presenters, I was trying to point out that the message board rules say we should not be offensive in our comments - perhaps a bit more diplomatic and constructive instead?

There are also black mustard seeds, which I would personally use over any other for curries (brassica nigra) - smaller and stronger in flavour than the brown seeds.

Best thing for your friend to do, and I am sure she probably does this already but worth mentioning anyway, is to heat the oil on the stove first, then put it on the fondue with the burner going. That way the oil is already at a high heat and the meths is only keeping it at that temperature rather than heating from scratch.

My post was not aimed at any one person in particular. However I now seem to have upset people who think I was.

I don't know what more to say on this matter. I was not looking for people to apologise. My frustration is with the message board guidelines, the fact they are not being adhered to and that some posts which don't adhere to them are being allowed to stand. I am not getting at new posters or regular posters or long standing posters or whoever. I certainly don't want people to stop shooting the breeze with each other either! My original post now seems to have been counter-productive and sadly I am not able to delete it.

Many thanks Baboush! Keep eating the chillies though - I adore them myself and have a freezer draw full. I won't chat on here, best leave that to Off The Menu, but good to see your post - and yes, Simon Rimmer is a bit of a hunk...

Now in danger of continuing this thread I shall stop... promise... just didn't want Baboush to think they were being ignored.

Many thanks for that Lotte! Your three day break sounds rather wonderful - there are so many fab small producers around here we are spoilt for choice. Anyone new who does know, Lotte's website is:
