THE CRITIC’S PICKS

THE COMIC’S WILDCARD

BETTER OFF RED • From earthy syrah and textural rosé, to light beer and fresh pinot noir, there’s a whole host of drinks to be served with a spiced braised lamb with smoky eggplant, say Mike Bennie and Merrick Watts . You can even start with a sambuca!

THE CHEF AND THE BUTCHER • Inspired by low-and-slow Stateside ribs, Colin Fassnidge and Anthony Puharich cook up a smoky spiced version to rack up instant praise.
