As we lurch between 30 degree heatwaves and 7 degree cold snaps, our thoughts here at Tasty HQ turn to the fact that we are deep within another British summer. We will no doubt be puddling round in mud at several festivals, skiving off work to watch the Ashes and generally sun bathing irresponsibly every moment the sun creeps out from behind the massed Nimbocumulus. But rest assured you can check back through our bumper crop of reviews from May and look forward to a similar amount in June to retain some semblance of normality.

Special thanks this month to our legion of writers who have put their educations at risk and carried on reviewing when they really should have been revising - we salute you comrades.
