In 1968 Andy Warhol stated “In the future, everyone will be world-famous for 15 minutes”. We’re not sure whether this was a prophetic vision based on the ease to gain internet fame in the 21st century, but wanting our “15 minutes” Elldrew decided to seize an opportunity to put themselves in front of the camera for Amazon’s pre-Christmas …
New Year’s Eve at home has become something of a tradition for Elldrew with a close group of friends taking turns to host each year. Gone are the days of standing out with 1 million other party reveller watching the London fireworks from the Thames, no more mass raves at nightclubs around the Capital. The …

Over the years Elldrew have blogged about lunch and dinner entertaining we’ve hosted, they’re always great fun and the perfect opportunity to catch-up with family or friends and try out new recipes. Last weekend we probably had our biggest challenge to date. To prepare a luncheon for guests who are vegetarian, gluten and egg free.
Another year, another season and another ten days of eating and drinking in and around London. Without turning this into a personal competition, having read our 2014/15 eating capers, it could seem like we are setting ourselves an annual challenge to out-do the number of restaurants we can frequent with family and friends over the silly season. …
One of the great things about the internet is the constant inspiration it provides. We recently scrolled across a photo of this wonderful looking zesty courgette spaghetti pasta dish, deliciously created and shot by Australian food stylist @tracyvalentinawood who we follow on Instagram.
