Reid’s Palace Hotel, Madeira
What an unsettling couple of years it has been with the onslaught of the global COVID-19 pandemic. With many lives and businesses affected, if there is a silver lining, it’s given us all a chance to reboot and come together.

Chicken Pad Krapow
We’ve nicked this simple Thai Chicken Pad Krapow recipe from John Whaite’s ‘A flash in the Pan’ cookbook, we fell in love with the dish as soon as it hit our lips. It couldn’t be any simpler to prepare and cook, bursting with flavour, it leaves a tingle on your lips from the heat of …

Japanese Garlic Fried Rice
This delicious Japanese garlic fried rice recipe has become an Elldrew favourite during lockdown. We prefer to make too much so that we have leftovers but, be warned, it’s garlicky, but like any dish, you can reduce the amount of garlic if you plan on kissing anyone that night! To make any fried rice you …

We say hip and cool because as you enter Chinese Tuxedo …
