About me

Fiona Dunlop is a seasoned travel and food-writer who has been ‘abroad’ for much of her life. She doesn’t count countries but aims to dig deep beneath the surface of the places she visits. Food has increasingly become her focus, without forgetting art, architecture and design. Andalucia (Spain) is her second home, but French her second language!

Only in Spain... an extraordinary combo of a glutinous base of pigs trotters with two very special prawns from Motril. Course no. 5 of an 8-course knockout lunch @casapiolas. More pics on @andaluzfoodandtravel

One of my favourite walks round here, edging the lake, always makes me think of Australia where I was born. Something about the sandy rock & sparse vegetation - & of course the ultramarine sky

A deep dive into the "big chicken plate" @dilara_uyghur_resturanti. I wished this sharing dish wasn't to share as it was too damned delicious - hand pulled noodles, chicken pieces, veg & a hot spicy sauce. Perfect for another cool rainy evening

Braved a cold, wet, strike-ridden night yesterday

Braved a cold, wet, strike-ridden night yesterday to see Marjorie Prime, a clever American play mixing avatars with humans - except that the four actors were all flesh & blood. Ingenious exploration of family relationships interweaving past & present.
Then it was out the 1870s door of the wonderful @menchocfactory through the drizzle to @arabicalondon - one of my favourite Middle Eastern restaurants tucked away in @boroughmarket. I just managed to scoff a delicious pistachio encrusted chicken thigh & down a smooth Lebanese red before we had to leap on a strike-free bus home. And the rain stopped

How beautiful! a rainbow of pinks & ochres that makes up a handful of Uyghur tea, given to me by Rose, owner & cook at @dilara_uyghur_resturanti
Can't wait to try the tea & to indulge in a central Asian feast

A treat to be invited to @hakkasanlondon after a long hiatus - but impossible to forget those rainbow-coloured dim sum. Duck salad, crispy prawns, raspberry sorbet... amongst other deliciousness - & the Asian beat goes on 💛

So it's International Women's Day - hard to beat the strength of the Ghanaian women whether cooking or striding along the beach carrying massive loads. And of course the Palestinian women (previous post) have the toughest conditions of all

A moving article in todays Observer @guardian about Doha, my Palestinian guest last week invited to the UK by @zaytoun_cic . Here she tells her story of farming under occupation - as told to & written by Richard Brooks, my partner.
Read it online - a moving & little heard perspective on the terrible ongoing assault on people's lives & resources

Absolutely delicious & tender lamb quzi (shank) with basmati rice, aubergine, white beans, ace flatbread, & numerous other side dishes, + a lentil soup to start. Incredible generosity, typically Middle Eastern - Khuttar Iraqi Cuisine near Paddington. All for £15!!
And it's goodbye to Doha, my Palestinian friend (slide) 🥲. Bon voyage habibti

Lunch today - a Palestinian spread (it's that kind of week) of zaatar pastries made, & olives cured, by my friend Doha, tabbouleh & hummus made by me, falafel & naan from local Baban's naan shop. Quite a spread - still full, hours later
