After enjoying the strawberry pop tarts as part of brunch with friends at Foreign Cinema, I was pleased to be informed by my sister in law and Bon Appetit subscriber that the recipe had just been published by none other than the restaurant's own celebrity chefs Gayle Pirie and John Clark. I haven't tried making them myself, and I'll always recommend going if you have the opportunity, but for those of you who can't - do try the recipe (and let me know how it goes).

If you are able to go, try brunch outdoors on a sunny day - bloody marys are on the menu. Dinner at Foreign Cinema is also consistently excellent - interesting menu which changes fairly frequently, apart from oysters which are a staple.
