I hope I shall be forgiven if I encourage anybody who is in the North of England between 21st and 30th September to have a look at the programme of the York Festival of Food and Drink and see if anything takes their fancy. (I would be delighted to meet anybody from this group who cares to come to my Saint-Émilion lunch in the Mansion House
- washed down by 7 wines, including 2 Grands Crus Classés, all for GBP35.00 but there is also a lot of other interesting things going on.)
with apologies for touting my wares — and those of others,
Tim Hartley
