Spear’s Ultimate Diamond Jubilee Street Party: Then Eat This

After grazing on Tom Aikens’ small delights, those with a sweet tooth can look forward to Mark Hix’s take on Escoffier’s Cherries Jubilee, created for Queen Victoria’s Diamond Jubilee in 1897. It only seems appropriate to celebrate the Diamond Jubilee in a similarly flamboyant style: Kentish cherries steeped in a thick, glossy and rather boozy sauce, flambéed, then poured over unctuous vanilla ice-cream. This is so utterly cheerful and Jubilee-appropriate that it will be put on the menu at HIX Selfridges (hixatselfridges.co.uk) for the summer.
