This dish is a popular staple on most Thai restaurant menus and it’s unbelievably easy to make, it gets its name as it’s something tastey to stuff in your face when drunk… apparently. Pork Belly (or whatever you like) 1 tbsp Oyster Sauce 20ml Soy Sauce 20ml Honey# Rice Noodles 2 Cloves Garlic (crushed) 1…

Portly Drinks | Manhattan
Need I say more? It’s my favourite cocktail. 2 parts Bourbon 1 part Martini Rosso Lemon Wedge 2 dashes Angostura Bitters (Optional) Chuck it all in a glass and enjoy! PG
Portly Drinks | Aperini
Who doesn’t love a spritz in the summer? Aldi have got their own version of the classic Aperol called Aperini. It’s a game changer! I love an Aperol Spritz and now you can have that same bitter citrus drink for a fraction of the price. Aperol as I write this is around £15 in most…
Portly Drinks | New England IPA | Adnams
This has to be one of my favourite beers I have discovered and been shown recently. The New England IPA from Adnams is a cloudy and very citrusy beer made using the Citra Hop and a couple of others. It comes in at 6% and is VERY quaffable. It has lots of fruity flavours and…
Portly Drinks | Coffee | Lavazza
I think most of the time I am 90% coffee. It all starts with my morning espresso and then the giant flask of super strong coffee I take with me for the day… before my flask I was spending around £15 a day on coffee… For my espresso in the morning I use my Lavazza…
Portly Drinks | Dry Hopped Lager | Adnams, Southwold
I don’t normally like lager, if I do drink it, it’s normally in summer and served ice cold. However, with the new craft beer scene rising steadily in the UK I’ve found Adnams Dry Hopped Lager. This golden lager has a wonderful (as the name suggests) hoppy flavour using Galaxy Hops. The beer has slight…
Portly Drinks | Adnams | Adnams Brewery, Southwold, UK
The other week I was taken on a magical mystery tour across the Suffolk countryside to the sideside town of Southwold, home of the Adnams Brewery. I have to say from the off that this tour was one of the best I have ever been on and our guide was unbelievably knowledgeable and in my…
Portly Drinks | Highland Park 12 Year Old Viking Honour
I was given this rather lovely bottle as a gift. What’s not to like free scotch for the win! Turns out that this whiskey is pretty damn good too! Highland Park is among the best when it comes to Single Malt Scotch (IMO) and this is 12 years old! Highland Park 12 Year Old Viking…
Portly Drinks | Crossborder Porter | Cross Borders Brewing Company
I love a dark beer, this is a porter from way up in Dalkeith. Crossborders Porter comes in a properly jazzy can, the main reason I wanted to try it actually. It’s got a very tactile can. Crossborders Porter has a deep and dark colour with notes of coffee and dark chocolate. On the can…
Portly Drinks | Prohibition Brew | Budweiser
Non-alcoholic beers seem to be on the rise, I’m always intrigued by these creations. Until now my favourite, has been Bitburger Drive. Budweiser though have recently brought out their new Prohibition Brew. I’m a sucker for advertising and after seeing an advert for it I went and got myself one. First off I loved the…
