The best food and drink I’ve had this month
1/ Starter of Chargrilled Leeks, Comté Fonuta and Gremolata in the crumbling grandeur of the antique-filled dining room at Brunswick House www.brunswickhouse.co
2/ A cup of Cannoli tea inspired by the classic Sicilian patisserie. Sweet, honeyed rooibos with vanilla, orange, cinnamon and cocoa shells www.dandyliongroup.com
3/ The first flush of Kent Asparagus with morel mousse and truffle dressing by Head Chef Tom Genty at The Swan at Chapel Down www.swanchapeldown.co.uk
4/ Several glasses of English wine-maker Chapel Down’s newly released Kit’s Coty Estate Chardonnay 2013. Apple, apricot and hot, buttered toast, just like a white Burgundy www.chapeldown.co.uk
5/ A mind blowing taste of Butterfly ‘Yka’ leaves. With stunning burgundy and violet colours and striking shape these culinary and decorative leaves are tart and refreshing just like a granny smith apple www.koppertcress.com
