| The Veterans' Cafe, Stoll, Fulham Broadway popular with veterans, the public & footie fans |
The Cafe - known for its high quality meat and well-priced English breakfasts - is headed by former veteran and PTSD sufferer Iain Camps, aided by his faithful sidekick, Stuart. Specialties include classic East End Pies (with Ian's own pie liquor), Pulled Pork Sandwiches, Salt Beef and bangers and mash.
Nearly everything is cooked on site, from scratch - apart from the East End Pies.
During the summer, many tourists at high-priced hotels seek refuge with Iain for generous well-priced cooked breakfasts.
It's had great reviews over the years with articles in the Evening Standard and the Guardian, among others.

Iain's now keen to open a 'home-baked' counter with cakes, cookies and other indulgences. I'll be making them in the 'big' kitchen, a few yards away, and helping to serve and wash up. Some of the offerings will be health-conscious; some not so much!!

Obviously working a few days a week will cut down on time available for the blog.
67goingon50 will still appear weekly and include new recipes. But for a time, 67 will feature more archive pieces. I hope these will be a source of delight for the increasing numbers of global visitors new to the blog.
By the way, the blog's visitors' tally is now (8/19) well over 67,000 - not bad for a 4-year-old blog that's not linked to Instagram or Facebook.

One of the great things about current food writing is how the cult of healthy eating has exploded into the mainstream. There is now a plethora of healthy budget-friendly recipes on the web and elsewhere, for home cooks looking for quick and easy "recipes and tips for great health and graceful ageing, whatever your age or income".
67 recommends the following free sources:

@Cooking Light produces appealing low-fat recipes, many aimed at young working people. Whatever your age or occupation, 67goingon50 recommends the feed.
Also:
The Mail on Sunday (free on the net):
'You' magazine has its fingers on the pulse where food trends are concerned; you might not be interested in all of them but they can provide inspiration for your own recipes.
The Mail is currently serialising The Doctor's Kitchen: Eat to Beat Illness by Dr Rupy Aujla (Thorsens £16.99) which is worth investigating.
