ZARZU ELA DE PESCADO from La Caraba, Minorca. • - -______


TRANSLATED, our Dish of the Week recipe is an operetta of fish or seafood. It is a dish that can be adapted according to taste, budget and season. La Caraba is a typical Minor-


can country house restaurant with two well-kept and intimate dining rooms. In the interior, the walls are adorned with unusual objets d'art, photographs and pictures, local Spanish pots and crockery, while its very pleasant garden-terrace offers tranquilli­ ty dining with singular charm to savour the wonderful Minorca balmy nights. Imaginative dishes of


Mediterranean inspiration are cooked and served with creativi­ ty and professionalism by a team of mainly young local people, but in charge is the chef and patron who can be seen busily dashing between kitchen, dining


rooms and garden. A truly beautiful experience of


dining with simplistic dishes served in the most mouthwater­ ing way. However, exactly where La Caraba is will remain my


secret as it is, almost, heaven on

I ATTENDED a tasting during the spring where I tried a wine I thought would be perfect on a warm summer's evening. We have


just taken delivery of this wine, a 1998 CHATEAU MONCON- TOUR VOUVRAY DEMI-SEC


at £5.89. This famous old chateau, one


of the best producers in the region, makes its wine from the chenin blanc grape. This wine has a clean, fresh aroma m the mouth, it has a wonderful fresh apple taste with pleasant sweet­ ness and a clean balancing acidi­ ty, a lovely aperitif and particu-

larly nice with most pork dishes. While on the subject of aperi­


tifs and apples, a few months ago a gentleman telephoned me. He was the proprietor of the Somer­ set Royal Brandy Company. Besides making lovely cider brandy, the company also pro­ duces Kingston Black Apple Aperitif at £5.99 per 50cl. A blend of cider brandy and the


juice of one of the finest and rarest of vintage cider apples, it has all the sweetness of apple with a depth and quality of flavours which has made Kingston Black a legend in the ^ apple orchards of the West Coun-


try. Serve well-chilled with plenty


of ice for a cooling, refreshing summer drink.

ASTROLOGERS would explain my draw to water in its many


forms by my Aquarian birth sign. Whether in the course of a lazy afternoon dreamily watching a twitching float in the mirror of a mill pond, or through the zestful haze of a rousing dawn skinny-dip through the crashing breakers of the Atlantic, water masses hold an endless fascination to me. It was with some interest, then,


that I picked up Alan Shepley’s book featuring an idyllic pastel image of a long boat drifting down a canal — walking books generally fill me with ennui, but this I hoped might prove to be


different.


‘Waterside Walks in Lancashire by Alan Shepley,


Countryside Books, £6.95 It contains details of 20 of the


county's most stimulating circu­ lar walks around rivers, canals, reservoirs and shorelines. Includ­ ed in the collection are two jaunts in the Ribble Valley. One takes us to the Ribblesdale Arms, Gis­ burn, along Stock Beck towards Skipton and then back to the vil- lage. Our guide handles his sub- ject matter well, giving us inter­ esting nuggets of information, such as the fact that the inn, built in 1635, cost its owner £855. The


second walk begins at the Old Stone House, Mitton, which enjoys a good write-up. The walk described is a pleasant one and I for one shall certainly be giving it; a whirl if I can resist the pull of the Old Stone House’stempting


ales and food. Overall, this is an ideal book for


those non-too serious walkers who, like me, are haunted by


waters. B „ , en Carlish
