If you believe the food marketeers, popcorn is supposed to be taking over from crisps. Not just any old popcorn either - gourmet popcorn. We try out the newest varieties from Metcalfe's and ask - do people really eat this as a snack after they've been to the gym (as the packet suggests)?
This chicken with streaky bacon and pesto recipe is a great alternative to the usual pasta and pesto combination. Stuff the chicken with your favourite pesto flavour, wrap in bacon and cook!
We just received a few bags of coffee beans from Puro, so created an elegant and rich Mocha Pot dessert, made with fair trade Puro coffee and dark chocolate. Try making it yourself, it's easy!

We road-tested the EasiYo yoghurt maker to see how easy it is to make yoghurt at home.
This classic Italian dish is quick and easy to make, whilst still packing a huge punch of flavour – perfect for during the week after a hectic day at work. As we have gone for speed and convenience over hassle, you won’t need to worry about digging the pasta machine out of the attic or bringing your basil plant back to life.

We ate roast pollack from St Ives with a cannellini and bacon stew, with purple sprouting broccoli on the side, and merguez spiced squash, followed by chocolate mousse and creme brulee. It was really tasty - as you can see from the pictures, the portions were large (and we didn't really need the side) and it's great value for money, with mains around £9.50-£13 and desserts £5-6.
