Mister & Missus C: Biscuit Croque Monsieur & Madame Happy days are here again. This brief glorious week where there are still leftovers and not yet new years resolutions.

Pea Shoot and Avocado Breakfast Sandwich A study in contrasts: crispy egg, creamy avocado; rich buttery yolk, bright burst of lime; spring fresh pea shoots, and the earthy bite of garlic- all sandwiched together between two slices of perfectly grilled bread.
