I do love finding somewhere that serves proper good food without charging a fortune!

Warung Nusantara has taken over the old Fish Bone fish and chip shop in Fitzrovia, and they've even kept the original fryer and counter.

I went for the Ayam Kremes, a whole fried chicken leg with crispy batter scraps, rice, tempeh and sambal, all for just £10.

The chicken was excellent, the sambal had some serious heat, and it was my first time trying tempeh, which I really enjoyed.

Oh, and don't overlook the sweet tea. That was absolutely banging!

Another day out metal detecting, and this time we're in Cromer, Hertfordshire. So naturally, I decided to make myself a crab baguette using a Cromer crab from the other Cromer in Norfolk.

A lovely mixture of dressed crab, celery, onion, mayo and lemon juice, all packed into a brioche baguette for lunch.
The detecting wasn't exactly spectacular, with plenty of buttons, bullets and toasted coins, but I did manage to find an old crotal bell, possibly dating back to the 17th century.

Loads of you have recommended Tony's Pie & Mash in Waltham Abbey, so I finally paid them a visit!

They've been serving traditional pie and mash since 1995, and apparently David Beckham is a massive fan. The story goes that he even had their pies flown out to Madrid when he was playing for Real Madrid!

Ever since visiting Manze's, I've developed a bit of a taste for the stuff, so I went for my usual two pies, two mash and liquor.

Lovely beefy pies, proper mash with a good potato flavour, and a thick, rich and earthy parsley liquor that was absolutely delicious.

And after getting a bit of a cussing for using a knife in my last pie and mash video, you'll be pleased to know I used a spoon and fork this time! šŸ˜‚

This one is dangerously good. Syrupy kataifi, thick creamy custard and whipped cream on top, all for just £3 from Lefteris in Palmers Green.

Really sweet, really indulgent and definitely one I’d recommend.

I finally got myself down to the Edmonton branch of The Best Turkish Kebab.

I went for the Ā£15 large doner with chips, salad, chilli and garlic sauce and two pittas. The doner had a proper lamb flavour, subtly spiced , and importantly it wasn’t greasy at all.

A very generous portion and a double thumbs up from me šŸ‘šŸ‘

I’m back metal detecting again, one of my favourite hobbies, so I thought I’d somehow incorporate it into the food videos.

For my first Digging Lunch I made myself a bÔnh mì-esque sandwich with lemongrass pork, pâté, mayo and homemade pickles.

After a morning of mostly lead, buttons and scrap, I finished the day with something a little bit special...

So excited this morning! Haven’t been detecting for over 2 years and I’m buzzing to get going! Chris’s digging lunch vid...

A trip to the British Museum led me to Seoul Bakery for lunch, where I tried the beef bibimbap with soup and kimchi.

The bibimbap worked much better once everything was mixed together, but it definitely needed the gochujang to bring it to life. If I went back, I’d probably save the extra Ā£1.50 on the beef.

The honey plum iced tea was the real highlight. It had a lovely syrupy plum flavour without being overly sweet, and I was digging out the pieces of plum and munching on those too.

Very well priced for this part of London, so it’s getting a thumbs up from me.

Had a wander around the British Museum yesterday. I absolutely love it in there, you could spend all day looking and still not see everything!

I did try to steal the Elgin Marbles while I was there, but unfortunately they wouldn’t fit in my rucksack. 😤

Finished the day off with a spot of lunch at Seoul Bakery.

I’ve been making the late, great Antonio Carluccio’s bolognese since 2011 and it’s still my favourite version.

It’s incredibly simple too. No herbs, no garlic and no massive shopping list. Just good meat, tomato, white w**e and a couple of hours bubbling away.

Ingredients I used:
250g beef ribļæ½250g pork shoulderļæ½1 onion, choppedļæ½Olive oilļæ½Butterļæ½Saltļæ½Black pepperļæ½1 tsp tomato purĆ©eļæ½1 carton passataļæ½6–7 tbsp white w**eļæ½Tagliatelleļæ½Parmesan (if you want)

The finished sauce has this lovely natural sweetness from the tomato, the meat takes on all that flavour and you get just a hint of the white w**e in the background.

Absolutely beautiful and definitely worth trying.
