The new opening!

Okay, so it's not that new (in the world of food I'm sure that having been opening nearly two months warrants it as a fully fledged restaurant toddler) but boy was I excited to try Hen in Brighton last weekend. After being introduced by the lovely Laura, we made sure to book a table for our dinner date with Suzie and Josh- and could have easily eaten our way through everything on the menu. With brunch options including gluten free waffles and homemade broth (perfect for this weather), homemade cakes- and the dinner menu offering both chicken and veggie burgers as well as quarter, half or wing options- you're seriously spoilt for choice. With all food locally sourced, it's as healthy as a naughty meal can get- with a range of nutritious salads to accompany your meal too- I'll take it all!

Home cooking- to your door?

If there was ever a way to try new dishes, play with new ingredients and get a tasty meal at the end as reward for your (not so) hard work- it's with Marley Spoon. The service provides a weekly menu of fresh, tasty ingredients (including herbs, meat and veg) that you can chose from- to have delivered to your door on your chosen date ready to cook for dinner. Each box costs about £9 , but the satisfaction of learning how to use new ingredients, create a new dish and please (and impress) a guest is all but worth it!

Try a cooking class!

After receiving for my birthday the chance to attend a Food at 52 Italian cooking class, I was pretty. damn. excited. Having waited since June to try the class, it finally rolled around this January and I couldn't have loved it more. Cooking 5 courses from scratch (and eating them all) is one of the most satisfying ways to spend an afternoon, and I learnt everything from how to make pasta, pesto, ice cream, biscuits, risotto and a perfect chicken dinner- which left me feeling incredibly inspired, full and desperate to try another class! A must visit for any budding cooks in London looking to expand their kitchen skills!
