I shall have to seek Simon Hopkinson out and see if he can do anything to improve my limited culinary horizon. I have a sneaky feeling that he will not quite measure up to you though, Miles. Miles & Cid,

He manages to combine extravagance and simplicity in a quiet, refined and very English way. Quite sublime really. Miles Cid,

A real joy. Miles Cid,
