Lyonnaise salad with pork belly and poached egg from the Bonnard Exhibition menu at Tate Modern Level 9 restaurant. The sun shines; Portuguese Casa de Mouraz rosé deliciously invokes the light in the pictures.

After Spencer Metzger — one of two finalists from John Williams’s Ritz kitchen — wins the Roux Scholarship 2019, supper at Mandarin Oriental’s Bar Boulud includes poularde aux morilles, one of the best chicken dishes I’ve had.

At the “slap-up feast” for Kate Spicer’s frisky, fabulous book, Lost Dog, at Mike’s Café in Notting Hill, fragrant East India spring veg curry from Mark Broadbent’s Bread & Honey with More Wine on tap than I should have.

Crispy duck at Modern Shanghai in Chinatown takes us back to about mid-Seventies Wolverhampton.

Alfonso mango, fruit of the gods, at the house of Indian friends.
