If you didn’t know by know, there’s nothing more fashoinable than food. Fashion queen Anna Barnett is one of the most stylish Instagrammers in London and she is also incredibly well-known for her website www.AnnaBarnettcooks.co.uk and blogs ‘Get In My Gob’ and ‘The Reluctant Vegetarian’. I’m loving her first cookery book, entitled ‘Eat The Week – Every Meal, Every Day’ which is as stylish as she is. The photography is just impeccable and I love how it’s divided into days of the week with different themes, each styled like an Instagram shot to perfection. She has a pop-up restaurant at her house in Hackney London and has hosted hundreds of dinner parties so she’s a hands-on expert in creating good-loooking and delicious meals from the budget conscious to extravagant.

Here’s what www.AnnaBarnettcooks.co.uk says about the book: “It’s Tuesday, you’re feeling lazy and you’re craving flavour. It’s Thursday, the weekend is in sight and it’s time to share a feast with friends. It’s Saturday, you’re ready to splash the cash and go big. Eat the Week is stylish, practical and personal. Anna Barnett has devised creative recipes inspired by our different moods as we navigate the week. There’s everything from weekend brunches and comforting dishes packed full of carbs to nutritious salads and zesty Asian noodles for when you want something lighter, plus cheats, insider tricks and imaginative ways with leftovers. On Mondays it’s all about simple dishes, healthy-eating resolutions, minimum fuss and robust flavours; on Saturdays, when you have more time to shop and cook, things get a bit more extravagant. Taking you from Monday through to Sunday, breakfast through to dessert, Eat the Week will take the hassle out of food shopping and meal planning and put the fun back into your week.”
