Where I Ate Last with Tony Astle: Kingland Social

This week Tony Astle ate at Kingsland Social. Owned and run by Chef Phil Clarke and his wife, the restaurant is more family oriented than his previous ventures and according to Tony, the food is "casual in style but pretty good". He had the Caesar Salad, the Crispy Calamari Salad, the Greenstone Creek eye fillet with garden salad and fries, and the Angus beef burger, topped with a fried egg, beetroot, pickles, mesclun, tomato, melted cheese, all on a brioche bun. And for desert, they had fresh fruit and vanilla ice cream.  LISTEN ABOVE   Recipe of the Week: Fresh Tuna Nicoise  Ingredients:     For The Salad  1 egg  6 round French beans  3 anchovy fillets  3 green olives  1 small boiled potato, sliced  1 small vine ripened tomato, quartered     For the Tuna  150 g fresh tuna fillet  ½ tsp cajun spice  ½ tsp virgin olive oil  2 Tbsp balsamic vinegar, reduced by half     Method and Finishing:   1.
