This week’s recipe showcases sea bream that’s accompanied by...

A chef has revealed his mouth-watering recipe for a 'scotch' egg made from crushed Oreos and a creme egg. Chef Ben Churchill, 30, has transformed the traditional British savoury treat into a sweet dish that features a gooey Creme Egg at its centre. The unconventional snack swaps sausage meat for the creamy filling of an Oreo and is rolled in blended Oreo biscuits which resemble a Scotch egg's breadcrumbs. Having worked in the industry for 10 years, Ben is a...

The Plough pub in Sheffield isn't any ordinary pub. It is a pub that is believed to be the birthplace of modern football, where the rules of the beautiful game were first drafted over many pints during the 1870s spitting distance from Sandygate, the oldest football ground in the world. Last April the pub shut due a lack of business and its owner Enterprise Inn granted supermarket giant Sainsbury's a 15-year lease. Another historic pub was stood teetering on the brink of being...

Developed by Head Chef Stuart Cauldwell, the burger will encapsulate the restaurant’s well-loved decadent roast dinners served.

I'm not a pretentious man, but I do hate it when restaurants chains try to imitate independents. You may think rows of Bill's, Comptoir Libanais and Las Iguanas have improved the culinary outlook of Britain's high street, but in reality they have done little more than create a beige blueprint for our civic identity.

In June 2015, Le Chabanais opened on the site (named after a French brothel) and closed soon after. A few months later, the restaurant re-opened with a new name (8 Mount Street) and under new management. Though the menu of Modern-European food was fine, everything was completely let down by dining room; a narrow dining space embellished...
