I recently had a chat with Jill; the lovely lady who sorts out my receipts etc at TBC. She mentioned a farm shop in Coldharbour Lane, Hildenborough which came highly recommended and which I didn't know existed. I immediately went on a recce, met Andrea (farmer's wife - luckily no carving knife at hand!) and ended up buying a packet of oak smoked bacon and some sausages. The sausages are still nestling invitingly in the freezer - I can certainly feel a toad in the hole coming up soon but the bacon we used in a fry up this morning.
I left her my card with blog details on it and must apologise for the late completion of this draft!
We had the bacon pan fried and then with the tomatoes and eggs fried in the residual bacon fat. The mushrooms were cooked in seasoned butter with a touch of garlic and a handful of parsley to finish off.
A great way to start the late morning - a Sunday lie in, of course - and the gorgeous bacon was most definitely the star.
Felix and Andrea - I will definitely coming back; especially when the mutton or goat is available!
For those of you who are Tonbridge locals - the place is easy to find; just on the right after the sports field. Their website is www.kentfreerange.co.uk
