Boiling Point

Erin Quinn's first book Boiling Point is about to get published. It's a set of short stories based on Erin's experience working in kitchens and pubs in London, Derry, Londonderry, and Belfast.Erin's agent, Donna, is sending over a pair of brothers, John and James, to shoot a small 20-minute documentary for promo.   Blue Belles in Haringey, ran by two best friends, finds its joy in the chaos. The menu is comfort food with an elegant twist. Which might seem pretentious to an onlooker; the table d'hote changes weekly. The duck confit on a bed of lentil stew is to die for; the starter is a complete mystery, something called “Dennis’s spec’s” can be mistaken as a desert for its sweetness— texture-wise, it’s very much a custard; who is Dennis? Much like the dish, he's named after a complete mystery — Jay Rayner for The Guardian.
