Rude Food

The lovely Steph and I are putting on a supper club at the Angel Pub in brixton....




We like Rude. We love Food. Its perfect really.
Let us sate your every appetite with Rude Food.

Get warmed up with canapés off a peachy bottomed lady, slippery nipple in hand, and let us finish you off with an unctuous, well rounded sweet with curves in all the right places.

It's much more than just a dining experience, you will be immersed in interactive saucy art, inspired by the classic and tastefully shot Rude Food from David Thorpe in the very early eighties (pictured). Slick and sexy, but nothing stays like that for long does it?

Arrive at 8pm for your 4 course dinner, a free drink on arrival and a full evening of teasing. 

Running for Friday 29th & Sat 30th June, tickets must be bought in advance via

http://www.eventbrite.com/event/3733515044


Space is limited so make sure you get them tickets booked!

After your meal you will be invited to stay and enjoy the wonders of SEXY ART by the chaps at Brick Box until 2am.

"For this event, some of London's Sexiest Artists will be oozing art from every crevice, licking it from ****, exposing and investigating it. Yeah baby, they'll be uncovering their **** and sharing seminal *****. Mmmm...peer-to-peer exchanges and engagement whilst initiating...mmmmm...formal and informal art practises...ooh baby...oh - and...offline."

Brixham Cockles & Clams

The last few weeks have been absolutely mental working with the Gingerline girls! It's not up yet but check out their website in the next few days to see what I have been getting up to. I hope this may go a little way to explaining why I have been so quiet (or lazy) on the blog front.

This weekend I have swapped Brixton for Brixham in Devon and am having a throughly foodie time with my parents. Last night the mamma and I had a feast starting with this dish, Cockles & Clams with smoked bacon, prawns & rosemary oil.


The local fishmonger Stephan was given a bag of clams that morning by one of the local fishermen and did us a very good deal so I couldnt resist making this little dish.

1 Smoked bacon rasher (or lardons), Sliced
1 clove garlic, grated
Butter
1 tomato, finely cubed, seeds and core removed
1 glass dry white wine
1 squeeze of lemon
Curly parsley
100g shells off prawns (little brown shrimp would be great)
2 large handfulls each of clams and cockles
A drizzle of rosemary oil (optional)

Fry the bacon in a large pan until crispy. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds more before adding the white wine and a generous knob of butter. Fiercely simmer the wine for a few minutes to burn off the alcohol. Meanwhile place all the molluscs in a large bowl of cold water and after a few minutes discard any that don't close. Add the rest to the pot along with the prawns and cover with a lid. Cook on high for a few minutes until all the shells have opened - discard any that don't. Add the tomatoes and chopped parsley and season with some black pepper. Divide into bowls and drizzle with rosemary oil (Basil oil is lovely here too).

Serve with hot baguette and a chilled white wine.

We followed this with a rare rump steak, salad, asparagus and holandaise sauce.


Finishing up with a stinking camembert and grapes. Good work La Mamma.

Makerel Pate with Beetroot and Orange Salad


Delicious. Get the best smoked mackerel you can find. Flake it into large chunks. Add some black pepper, a spoonful of creme fraiche, a generous grating of fresh horse radish and a squeeze of lemon juice.

For the salad peel and grate one beetroot and two carrots. Squeeze out any excess liquid with your hands or ring out using a clean tea towel and pour over a little orange juice. Season with salt and pepper and drizzle with a little olive oil. Easy peasy.
