Sing the praises of your dear ol’ dad via a magnificent feast you know he’ll love.

Get Dad over, hand him a glass of something, and present him with a few of his favourite things in a menu designed for the everyman. And your main man.

The Starter

Fire up the barbecue right away, and just try to keep him from taking over the grill.

Drinks writer Mike Bennie says, “It’s dad’s day so why not match up some of these dishes with wines and drinks that befit the celebration; fancy red, fancy craft beer, fancy spirit to match dessert. Go on; spoil him.”

Drink match: Special pinot noir (Bannockburn Serre Pinot Noir)

The Main

Barbecues, burgers; he’s raised you well.

Drink match: Fancy craft beer (try Brewdog Punk IPA)

The Dessert

It’s the chocolate, cherry cake of extravagance, an impressive gateau to show you love him.

Drink match: Single malt (try Springbank 15 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky)
