June 16, 2009 at 2:42 pmI luff padron peppers and have even resorted to growing my own as I can't get hold of the buggers for love nor money. I also adore sour cherries. This menu is making my stomach rumble….

June 16, 2009 at 4:35 pmI tend to go to Portobello because I can also get chairs and crockery there when I need them.
And it's half the price of any supermarket or Borough market.

June 18, 2009 at 1:34 pmI'm growing padron peppers too gastrogeek – are you growing your under glass? I'm not and they are growing very slowly.
Love the idea of edging the triangles with seeds by the way. Good luck Lizzie!

June 20, 2009 at 1:29 pmOnly occasionally, very occassionally do I get the feeling of missing London and when I saw this menu, it was one of them. The only so far this year.
I have a word of warning about the drying of tomatoes thought. We 'moon-dried' a glut of cherry tomatoes once (overnight on lowest setting) and the stench was unbelievable – totally wretch-worthy. OH didn't mind it so much, but I swore I'd never do it again. And never have.
With regard to markets – try Shepherds Bush too for peppers etc. Even cheaper than Portabello (it has been 7 years since I lived there, but it can't've changed that much) and there's a fantastic place on Uxbridge Rd whose name escapes me right now that does superb falafel, breads & baklava. Along with about 12 different sorts of feta in black dustbins (they sell so much of the stuff a small jar won't cut it there). Will speak to mate about name and get back to you if you don't know it already.
Fingers crossed for the weather for you. Might have to arrange a visit with friends one weekend soon to taste your lovely wares.
