As the festive season returns, the author explores the delights of traditional holiday treats and discovers new culinary adventures, including the Italian Festive Porchetta Focaccia from Caffe Nero.
Season's eatings - I love this time of year with all the Christmas specials returning to fill our bellies with festive cheer. Mince pies, mulled wine, and battered Brussels sprouts...I can't get enough of them.
Getting myself down to the coffee shop in Beeston, I couldn't resist trying one of the festive drinks to go with it. I'm not usually one for extravagantly flavoured coffees - an Americano or flat white is as exciting as it gets, but what the heck, Christmas only comes once a year . In hindsight I should have lowered my expectations. Instead the meat was limp and paper thin, not the sumptuous thick slab I'd been hoping for, for £6.35. Once I'd got over the initial disappointment, I have to admit it was still tasty, with herby and salty hits thanks to the accompanying salsa, melty mozzarella, and flecks of rosemary topping the bread.
