New Menu

What a busy weekend. First Saturday night then Sunday lunch. The beautiful weather at the moment must be enticing more people out for lunch. It was a quick fire 90 people.

It is time to create a new menu. We try to achieve this four times a year. This is very challenging as we try to create a menu that one is appealing to the customer, two is interesting for us chefs, three feasible to prepare in our kitchen, four has a balance of produce, five the season of the year with availability. Some chefs change just the dishes that are no longer possible to make due to out of season produce and price, others because they are not popular. We will be changing 90 percent of the items. So if you have a favourite dish please come in soon for your chance to sample before the change. Also on that note if any of you have a special wish for this new menu please don’t hesitate to let me know and we will try to accommodate your wish.

Been Away. (The ASHES)

Well first of all I must apologize for the lack of content on my site. I am experiencing a few hick ups at present, but it will be sorted soon. Also Monica and I were in Brisbane for “The Ashes” that is a Cricket match between England and Australia.

A tradition since 1882 when England were first defeated by Australia in England and the so called death of English cricket was proclaimed and some piece of the game was burnt to ashes and placed in “the urn“. Monica attended her first live cricket game, a wonder when you consider that she would chose not to watch it on TV. After three days I think Monica had enough. Even though it was the wrong result for the Poms, it did show some signs of hope……Anyway back to reality now and the team did a great job while I was away. Was one of the busiest weekends of the year as well. Well done.
