Water - still or sparkling? - Still. One of my favourite drinks, just ice cold water. Never not refreshing.
Poppadoms or bread? - Bread. My grandad was a fisherman and a baker, my mum's a tremendous home baker and I love making bread myself so a nice focaccia would be perfect. Balsamic red onions and goats cheese are my go to toppings.
Starter? - The calamari and the anchovies I had at Bodega Vasconia in Barcelona. The day after Primavera festival and I've never had better.
Main course? - The lamb sharing dish my old man and I had at The Kitchin. Rack of lamb, rump of lamb, confit carrot, confit fennel and a thick, sticky lamb sauce. So simple but could have had it ten times over.
Side? - The Queso Fundido from Mas in Dundee. Very good modern Mexican place but nice salty tortilla chips with baked, stringy, oozy and slightly blackened cheese is amazing.
Dessert? - Rhubarb Crumble and custard. I like having blitzed up hazelnuts and pumpkin seeds in my crumble mix too.
Drink? - Aqua Di Valencia. Gin, vodka, freshly squeezed orange juice and topped up with cava.
