    Dear reader, I am yet again sorry for not writing anything more PC hardware related… I have a weakness that is called good food… To be more precise, I love home grown meat. I love it so much that I even refused to eat supermarket pork long time ago and I always struggle to find a good butcher to supply a decent piece of pork. Call me choosy if you like, but the majority of pork meat in the UK in my opinion is substandard. Compared to other European countries such as Germany, Spain etc,  we are very much left behind unfortunately in UK. I have nothing against British Lamb or Beef, actually I love it very much, though I can’t force myself to eat British Pork from the majority of suppliers. However, earlier this year, my searches paid off and I finally found a place that offered some really good pork. It was a farm in Devon and apparently they use some rare Berkshire breed and rear them outside organically. Oh, just so we don’t get confused here, no, I didn’t travel all the way to Devon…I took the risk to order online and they did a home delivery service using citylink, so the meat was arriving fresh all the time. The place is called little foxhole farm and you can find it at their website – http://www.littlefoxholefarm.com/

    To be frank, the pork was so delicious, for the first few weeks, it was my only choice for all the meals, no matter what. I didn’t even want to go out… It tasted completely different from anything else that you normally can buy. My only problem was the fact that I had to wait after ordering. I remember the first time when i placed the order it was a good few weeks wait. Being a nature that wants everything yesterday, I found this a bit of a challenge. Therefore, whenever i was coming close to any markets, I didn’t hesitate to take my chances again, yet fruitless.

    As a firm believer in the simple fact that when you try hard enough, it eventually pays off, the disappointments didn’t stop me from trying yet again and again. So yesterday it was my day! But I will explain as to how it happened as well as show you some pics, plus a quick recipe. :)

    It all started that I had to attend a business meeting in Canterbury and my wife wanted to visit the Cathedral for her coursework. As you can imagine, there was no much hesitation, as killing 2 birds with one stone and 2 rabbits with one shot is something I can’t say no to, especially considering that I don’t drive and my wife does.

    Anyway, Canterbury even on a cloudy day is a nice place to go to and the Cathedral is quite an outstanding building to see inside and out.
