Food Glorious Food
Oh, I love the stuff. OK, so it's a big part of my job, but I've been an anorak about it ever since I can remember. So, it's always nice to go out and eat Really Good Food. If it's in great and sexy company, so much the better. Last night, Hubster and I went to Corse Lawn (my very first place of full time employment, eek!) for dinner, as a late celebration for his birthday and an early celebration for mine. The dishes consumed were thus:
Starters: Hubster had Chargrilled Squid with a Butterbean and Chorizo Stew, and I had Wild Rabbit Terrine with Nettle Sauce and Marinated Fennel Salad.
Mains: Hubster had Ribeye Steak (rare to the point of mooing) with Bearnaise Sauce, Red Wine Jus and Horseradish Mash, and I had Chargrilled Calves Liver with Red Onion Compote, Chive Beurre Blanc and Champ. Accompanying vegetables were Roasted Beetroot, Almondine Potatoes and Sauteed Runner Beans.
Dessert: Hubster had Caramel Ice Cream with Buttscotch Sauce (I had half of this as he couldn't finish it; I have an unlimited capacity for pudding...) and I had a Honeycomb and Lavender Parfait with Poached Nectarine.
YUMMO!
A really nice evening *sighs happily*.
Am now off to work closely with the bunny that popped up in response to fawsley, brigantine1 and others nudging me in a not-so-subtle manner re Dr. Who slash....watch this space!
