My latest cookbook purchase is the excellent “Notes from a Small Kitchen Island” by Debora Robertson. Debora lived in Stoke Newington until recently( she has now moved to France) and in one of the chapters she writes about the area. It brought back many happy memories for me as i lived in “Stokey ” for 30 years before moving back to the South West. This brunch or lunch is based on a starter from a wine bar called The Fox Reformed, another place of happy memories as i held my wedding reception there.
