Thank you so much for the mention, I really appreciate it and glad you liked the piece. I'm editing part 2 right now and there's so much good stuff that I already have a bonus part three about the rise of Gordon Ramsay ready to go.
Very interested in your comments on wine pairings. I enjoyed the Ed Cummings piece and agreed to an extent but I think you are correct, when done really well (e.g. Moor Hall) it can add hugely to the enjoyment of the meal but too often there's just not enough effort put into them.

Can’t wait to see part 2! Will keep an eye out.
I guess the pairing thing comes down to the quality of the sommelier and the degree to which they see the pairings as a profit centre.
