Great British Menu Launch Night

Last week I received an email asking wether I’d like to come along to the lounge at Kota Kai in Porthleven to watch the first night of Jude Kereama’s appearance on The Great British Menu.

What’s in the box?

The Haul, The Homies and The Holy Sh*t those are good sausages

When I was seventeen and eighteen I was a vegetarian for a year, not for any particular reason, just ‘cus.  Until one day my cousin and his friends stayed round after a weekend in Newquay and cooked sausages and bacon every day for breakfast.  I broke, which wasn’t hard considering I had no idea why I’d…
