Pineapples are the food of…romance? Well they could be! Splash out on something unusual and a little exotic this Valentines day. Smooth but a lil’ bit prickly, just like that old devil love, impress with this Cordon Bleu recipe.

Dude food has never been so cheese-y. Hix Restaurants’ chef Ronnie Murray serves these sliders on brioche buns along with more trimmings than the turkey.

Let it (cheese) snow! Yup – Hix Restaurant’s Ronnie Murray has created just that, freezing and grating blue cheese to top off a canapé that’ll go down a storm…

Serving scallops in the shell means there’s no need to get out fancy servingware. The salty savour of the bacon and blue cheese works a treat with the sweet seafood, as Hix Restaurants’ chef Ronnie Murray proves in this cracking canapé.

Cheese and pineapple is practically a British institution. The cheese in this recipe might sound bonkers, but rest assured Hix Restauraurants’ Ronnie Hix doesn’t need to be institutionalised – this cheesecake is a winner.

The perfect start to a hectic day dashing through the snow (or not) to gather elusive gifts that are conveniently stocked exclusively at stores scattered all over town. Better make it a strong one… Merry Christmas.
