An Eccles cake in Druid Street


Now back in London after Christmas and the New Year in the Loire. Made a quick trip up to Maltby/Druid Street to do the shopping, which included buying some Seville oranges from Tony Booth. We were also tempted by the Eccles cakes@St John Bakery. Will be trying them with some cheese from Neal's Yard very soon. 

I gather that the opening of the new St John Hotel, in the building that used to be Manzi's near Leicester Square has been delayed until March.  

PS: The rich and spicy Eccles cake was excellent with some Cheshire and was also pretty good with some Stichleton.
