Edible Updates<br />

Christmas time, wine, wine, and a new landlord at my local, the <strong>Lewes</strong> Arms.<br />

Welcome Paul and farewell Abi, thank you for being super, you will be missed.<br />

Also in pub land, the Pelham Arms launches its on-site microbrewery Abyss<br />

Brewing Ltd. Landlord Andrew is a fan of dark beers and porters, and his<br />

own will soon be on sale in the pub on draught and in bottles.<br />

Enough on booze: it’s time to think about shopping in the dark. Late Night Shopping falls this year on<br />

Thurs 1st, from 6-9pm. In the Scandinavian spirit, Wickle are opening the shop and café until 8pm from<br />

24th Nov until Christmas. And there are food stalls too: on Friday 23rd, <strong>Lewes</strong> Food Market ‘Festive Market’<br />

will open from 9.30am to 2.30pm and on Sunday 11th, Food Rocks <strong>Lewes</strong> Christmas at Cliffe promises<br />

festive food, local drink and live music. You may choose to pick up some lovely foodie gifts at the LWB<br />

Christmas Emporium at House of Friendship from 10am on the same day.<br />

For the hamper hunters: Laporte’s are making them ‘to fit the pocket and the person’, starting from £22.50.<br />

<strong>Lewes</strong> Hamper are back, chock-full of VRAC teas, Merle’s Kitchen sweets and homewares from <strong>Lewes</strong><br />

Map. leweshamper.co.uk. The Charleston Café hamper (£75+p&p) is filled with local festive fare, including<br />

homemade mince pies and stollen bites, Charleston jams and Bloomsbury Ale, while The Sussex Hamper<br />

Company are offering no fewer than 19 hampers, including our favourite, the Sussex Gin Martini Hamper.<br />

Bonne Bouche are taking orders and offering delivery for Xmas chocs. If you fancy something a bit different<br />

this year, you might learn how to bake Christopsomo, Stollen and Rugelach with Community Chef on Sat<br />

3rd. I recommend making all three, gobbling them down with a slather of Ouse Valley Foods Christmas<br />
