Tonight we had a fine rump steak (purchased from Farmer Sharp in Borough Market) with a rocket-and-tomato salad (what we used to call arugula, being Americans) and baking powder biscuits. This American meal in honor of the Fourth of July, a celebration of our emancipation from the hated British.
To drink, we had the Domaine Vincent Girardon 2004 Santenay Premier Cru. It is delicious, with complexity, and length, and enough fruit to keep you going but not so much you think it's from Australia or California or some other awful place. Quite highly recommended.

We (monkeys and aethelred) are Americans living in London, England (so long as sea levels stay relatively low—we blame our countrymen). Alice's Law is a blog dedicated to us and things we find interesting (food, wine, beer, whisky, London and other cities, urban planning, parks, architecture, landscape architecture, Japan, subway systems, books, manhole covers, bicycles, biology, and so on ad nauseam).
