This week's review for the FT is up: The Harcourt in Altrincham, a craft beer pub with Hong Kong Chinese food. A story of security clampdowns, British National Overseas visas, and prawn toast (with added salted egg yolk). https://t.co/xBQicadQO2

With the world a weird, suppurating mess of just stuff at the moment, perhaps what you need is the distraction of a Kitchen Cabinet record. Tickets are now available for #Ashford #Bridport and #Macclesfield https://t.co/XzTHWl0NoP

It's TODAY. Which means this is the last time I'll plug it (phew eh). We have around 600 people coming tonight but there's still space for a few more if you fancy a night of hot, raucous, 80s chart hit themed jazz.

I would be CHUFFED TO BITS… …if you would listen to the great @jayrayner1 on my Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner? podcast. Great stories, unique fantasy guests and even a Rayner recipe thrown in for free! Link here : https://t.co/PmXZYaOR9d https://t.co/lH5UNpkBGv

Dr Laughlin at her best.

When The Kitchen Cabinet say “we were wondering if you have any thoughts on bouncy foods Zoe …” Hear the results of the custom made bounce-o-meter on today’s episode @BBCRadio4 #bbctkc https://t.co/n9Tf8CfIzi

And here is our food and drink special to launch the shiny new FT team. We came up with restaurant rules. And a starry team of commentators ripped them to shreds. Brilliantly conceived and executed by Harriet Fit h-Little the Nick Fury to our Avengers. https://t.co/VvruL2D4zf https://t.co/acBX6GVMrQ

To kick off my new restaurant column for the FT I decided to go back to where my love for eating out began: Rules, a place I have written about before but never reviewed. This one is free to read. A reminder of how to keep reading me coming up. https://t.co/Pg8I6dTpga

Someone with eagle eyes spotted that our outfit was down a couple of players. Here we are listed as a full sextet. Hurrah. Do join us. It will be a great night.
