London At Christmas TWENTY6 things to do and buy this festive season......

London was the home of Dickens, so while in celebration of the birth of a baby some distance away (Bethlehem) many of the traditions we now enjoy were invented and entrenched in 19th Century London. Mr Scrooge awoke on Christmas morning to discover the joys of Christmas so join us on our London journey and let’s “Party like it’s 1899!!!” NOT TO MISS …… on every Wednesday on the run up to Christmas Columbia Road Flower Market opens up for mulled wine and Carols … all the independent shops are open late and mulled wine is available on every corner. Follow the old Joanna (piano) on the barrow up the street and sing-along with the Christmas Carols lead by local Vicar Adam Atkinson, raising money for local charities whilst offering up a real slice of the old East End. What a Cockney “knees up” “ding-dong sing along”……. “All that glitters is not gold” but for the most brilliant festive glitter head to Marks and Spencers and grab a bottle of their Clementine Gin Snow Globe. Twenty6 Christmas Cocktail Recipe” ….. 20% Clementine Gin, 10% Grand Marnier, 50% Prosecco, 20% Soda Water Sparkle and luxury can be found in the fabulous Burlington Arcade. It’s the perfect Christmas cut-through from Bond Street to Piccadilly. Perfectly placed between Cartier and Fortnum & Mason, this has so much glamour. Celebrating its 200th Anniversary, having opened in March 1819, luxury leather goods, cashmere, new and antique jewelry, this is real old time elegance, and do drop into Laduree for your macaroons, a hair cut at Atkinsons or a shoe shine. Enter one end and pop out the other polished, buffed and groomed. “Hark the Herald Angels Sing” and other Carols …. Enjoy a service in one of the historical Abbey’s or Cathedrals this Christmas. Many hold services to raise funds for homeless charities. Check with each one to see what and when their services are. Visit the Antiques Market at the historic Spitalfields’ Market. Held every Thursday during the year, there remains a very 19th Century feel to this market. Find something totally unique; everything from an 18th Century teapot from Andrew Coram or pre-owned Dior Earrings….. it’s a wonderful place to wander and soak up the atmosphere whilst “hooking a bargain”. Take time to write to those you see seldom, an actual card cannot be replaced by any digital alternative, spend an afternoon catching up with old friends, its so worth the investment, any post these days that’s not a bill is such a pleasure. Charity cards available widely from many outlets. “We Three Kings of Orient Are”; we don’t expect you travel to the Orient but the Kings Road hosts its own Christmas Bazaar on the 7th December, horse carriage rides and chestnuts roasting bring festive cheer to this very glamorous corner of town. Afternoon tea is a tradition not to be forgotten at this time of year, a real treat, all the fine hotels do fabulous afternoon teas; The Ritz, Claridge’s and if you need a venue where doggy friends are welcome, book the wonderful drawing room at The Lanesborough, ….. for afternoon tea (or champagne), assorted sandwiches and an irresistible selection of cakes, the diet starts in January …….

Is Santa coming down your Chimney? We love Santa visiting, but also it’s fabulous to make sure he visits your nearest and dearest. Scented candles that make your home feel luxurious, “Jo Loves’ Christmas Candle” is the very essence of Christmas, with fresh pine, wood smoke and a hint of plum pudding. YUM. Oh and don’t forget to re-purpose the holder next year into a bulb holder for your Christmas hyacinths. The White Company has also captured the scent of Christmas, try either the Old Fashioned with a smooth mix of zest of orange and amber whiskey, warm and familiar; or their Classic Winter Warmer with spices of cinnamon, clove and orange. It’s like Santa just left the room…… Personalised presents are always extra special. It’s fabulous to get your bedding all up close and personal with Stranos Linen of London, pillow cases or full sets, pure luxury just for the ones you love, rest your head everyday on love and luxury. Something not just for the 12 days of Christmas but 365 days of the year.

We love stationery, “Thank you notes” (always so handy to write to say thank you for your wonderful Christmas prezzies) personalised notelets, or for the most traditional among us a set of writing paper and envelopes. Useful, beautiful and personal. Win win win. Check out Smythson or Wren Press . Everyone wants to smell nice……. So many options but so very personal, it’s a minefield choosing fragrances. I personally love the joyful experience of entering and inhaling the perfumed interior of Floris in Jermyn Street, W1, with its gorgeous interior as exhibited at the 1851 Exhibition. Santa Maria Novella, 117 Walton Street, SW3, or the Piccadilly Arcade it’s like shopping in the 19th Century, huge range of scents and lotions, the pomegranate terracotta room diffuser, literally lasts for years…. Pure class. Make your own Christmas wreath. I’m never one to take work away from a good florist, but a wreath making course with a few chums is a real hoot and you take away something to show off to your neighbours; a really fun few hours and once you know how it’s a gift that comes in handy year on year……. There are courses at Fortnum and Masons, Petersham Nurseries and Columbia Creative. Prices from £50 I am a huge fan of the Christmas Shopping Trip. A genuine trip to shop and not just clicking and collecting. This gives you the chance to enjoy the festive lights and experience a wander, make this Christmas old fashioned and take a day to shop with your best friend(s). Our Historic Christmas route to take in the lights, smells and tastes of Christmas. Stroll around St Christophers Place, South Molton Street, Old Bond Street, Burlington Arcade, Piccadilly Arcade. You will cover everything from Selfridges, Fortnum and Mason, the perfumers mentioned above, plus many more… For the perfect pit-stop and refuel, try Franco’s in Jermyn Street. It’s perfectly placed in the epicenter of the shopping district. Literally the best lasagna in London. Its classical elegance is like a step back in time; it’s the perfect spot on your Christmas shopping day out, perfect for lunch, early supper or a night out (BOOK!) 13th December is “Save the Children Christmas Jumper Day”. Wear your jumper with pride and give generously click here! Pantos and HO HO HO…. There are many options of live shows, Sandi Toksvig is hosting a Carol Sing A-long at the Globe theatre; the Christmas Tree in St Paul’s Cathedral, is illuminated on the 22nd December, and for the off beat check out Wiltons Music Hall, or the Hackney Empire for their festive fare. Check on line what’s on. Chelsea Christmas Lights Switch on is the 23rd of November, Christmas with illuminated Sloane Square, Sloane Street and Duke of York’s Square. Celebrations start at 2pm in Sloane Square with Carols and entertainment, with the lights to be turned on at 5pm. Christmas Candlelit suppers... Petersham Nurseries are running a number of lovely evenings, 6th, 12th, 19th and 20th December. Reservations on 0208 332 8665. Amazing atmosphere and wonderful food. Also take a peek at the Christmas decorations…… Don’t break a leg, but take a spin around the skating rinks that pop up, Somerset House, The Natural History Museum, Hampton Court Palace, wonderful surrounds…. Have go or just have a drink and watch. Its My Birthday - just saying……… Have a wonderful Festive Season, eat drink and be Merry……. And in the famous last lines of “Twas the Night Before Christmas” ….. “But I heard him exclaim as he drove out of sight”, “Happy to Christmas to All and to All a good night”. Words by Andrew Downs

Eight Cheese Trends to Watch in 2019

Let’s be clear: The most important trend for 2019 (and always) is eating delicious cheese, whenever and however you darn well please.

But if you’re craving cheesy inspiration for the year ahead, we’re here for you. Behold, the eight biggest cheese trends of 2019.

Hot Cheese

The hottest cheese trend of 2019? Hot, melty cheese! You’ve seen the raclette videos on social media. Now it’s time to take the melt one step further. Look for khachapuri, the Georgian bread boat filled with melted cheese, at Georgian restaurants and recipe blogs. And have you tried aligot, the dreamy, cheesy potatoes from central France?

NYC is home to several stellar Georgian restaurants. If you can’t find khachapuri or aligot near you, why not make your own hot cheesy goodness? The new book “Melt, Stretch, & Sizzle” will get you there in no time.

Clothbound Cheddars

Cheddar isn’t just the orange stuff that you melt on nachos, friends! A major cheese trend to look for in 2019 is clothbounds, the big guns of the cheddar family.

Clothbound cheddars are made in a slower, more traditional way, and their cloth rind allows the wheels to age for longer, gaining complexity as they go. U.K. versions like Mrs. Quicke’s, Montgomery’s, or Isle of Mull are beefier and more horseradishy, whereas America-made Shelburne Farms Clothbound, Fiscalini Bandage Wrapped, or Flory’s Truckle tend to be more nutty and chicken brothy. The cloth rind is usually adhered to the cheese with a bit of butter or lard; Caputo’s, a label from Utah, uses duck fat on its clothbound.

Marinated Fresh Cheese

Not only does marinated cheese look gorgeous in a colorful bowl on your cheese plate, it also offers zippy freshness that will delight even your pickiest guests. Aussies have been enjoying marinated feta for years — and, luckily, their incredible Meredith Dairy Feta is available stateside.

There are excellent American-made versions as well. California’s iconic goat cheese maker Laura Chenel has a line of Marinated Cabecou, including spicy and truffled options. The new Chevoo, also out of California, has a lovely lineup including dill pollen and garlic, Urfa chili and lemon, and, yes, an Italian black truffle flavor as well. Or, you can choose your own combinations when you make it yourself at home!

I Can’t Believe it’s Brie

In the U.S., we’re used to Brie and Brie-style cheeses tasting like butter and white mushrooms. But what about broccoli and garlic? Or mustard and sautéed wild mushrooms?

There’s nothing wrong with your basic buttery Brie, but trends are moving toward French preferences for bloomy rind cheeses with more personality. Look for Brie Fermier from Ferme de Jouvence, Harbison from Jasper Hill, or Weybridge from Scholten Farm. Serve with charcuterie and crusty bread and never look back.

And if any of your friends question your new, funkier choices, just give them a withering look and say, “This is how the French prefer their Brie.”

Gruyère and Her Sisters

We all know and love Gruyère, but why stop there? Gruyère is just one of what cheese people call “Alpine Style” cheeses, which have firm rinds, smooth pastes, and signature nuttiness. Impress your cheesemonger and delight your palate by trying one of Gruyère’s cooler cousins. Better still, they all melt like a dream.

Comté is a balanced and classic French cheese made in the Jura. L’Etivaz is only made in the summertime in Switzerland, when cows can feast upon mountain pastures, resulting in a beautiful and bonkers array of flavors. The fruity and stunning Pleasant Ridge Reserve is made in Wisconsin and is the most-award-winning cheese in American history.

Gjetost

Pronounced: “Yeh-Toast” Flavors: Caramel, butterscotch, and more caramel Eat: Right now, and forevermore.

Rather than throwing out the leftover whey from cheesemaking, those genius Norwegians reduce it down until it becomes this wonderful sticky treat. Gjetost, which just means “goat cheese,” is in the “brunost” or “brown cheese” family, which is typically served in thin slices at breakfast with coffee, or during the December holidays with spiced fruit cake. We like it on a brunch cheese board, especially paired with apple slices.

If you’re still not convinced, you should probably know that the inventor of modern-day gjetost won the Norwegian Medal of Honor for her creation. Yeah. It’s that good.

Unconventional Pairings

We’re never going to tell you that pairing cheese with your favorite wine and some water crackers is wrong. But some pairings that you may have thought were frowned upon are not only right, but real trendy right now.

Why not use chocolate as a cracker for your aged gouda instead of boring old baked grains? Potato chips are surprisingly wonderful to dip into your favorite gooey cheese, and gummy peach rings go weirdly well with fresh chèvre. Use your imagination!

Butter is the Best Cheese

O.K., so this one isn’t technically cheese, but while you’re serving your handpicked cheeses and fresh baguette, why not up your dairy game with some cultured butter? By “cultured,” we mean butter with cheese cultures added, which lend a light zip and beautiful layered richness. Look for anything from Ploughgate, Vermont Creamery, or the classic Rodolphe le Meunier.

Warning: Once you’ve tried butters like these, you’ll never go back to your old spread.

The Royal Floris Cakes / A királyi FLORIS torták - God Save the King !

The FLORIS family living in London are the only ones who, as Hungarians, have ever received the Royal Warrant, the title of official supplier of the British Royal family, and were able to use the "Royal Arms" or the royal coat of arms during their business activities. The FLORIS family, both from the Queen Mother (George VI's wife, the Duchess of York) and the reigning II. He received the Royal Warrant from Queen Elizabeth. The royal coats of arms were also used on the exterior of the Floris confectionery and bakery at 24 Brewer, London. In addition to these, the FLORIS company made the birthday cakes of Prime Minister Winston Churchill and his family for nearly twenty years. * * * Londonban élt FLORIS család az egyetlen, aki magyarként valaha megkapta a Brit királyi család hivatalos beszállítói címét a Royal Warrant-ot és használhatták Royal Arms vagyis a királyi címert az üzleti tevékenységük során. A FLORIS család mind az Anyakirálynőtől (VI. György feleségétől, a York hercegnéjétől) és az uralkodó II. Erzsébet királynőtől megkapta a Királyi Végzést. A londoni Brewer 24. szám alatti Floris cukrászda és pékség külső megjelenésén használták is a királyi címereket. Ezeken túl a FLORIS cég készítette közel húsz éven keresztül Winston Churchill miniszterelnök és családja születésnapi tortáit. - - - 🇬🇧 🇭🇺 More FLORIS stories here / További FLORIS történetek itt: the BOOK of FLORIS – Haszon Gábor© Kutatási-Napló® #bonbonnerie #LoveLondon #soho #IIICharlesKing #IIIKároly #Florisbonbon #Florisbakery #Florischocolate #FlorisChocolat #FlorisLondon #KingCharlesIII #TheHouseofFloris #Budapest #londonhistory #FlorisBudapest #Budapest #London #Berlin #FlorisBook #FLORIS #TheBookofFloris #TheCoronationofKingCharlesIII
