We had our largest Seasonal Supper to date.
It was a real celebration of our local harvest with most of
the ingredients sourced locally. Special thanks go
to Linscombe Farm who yet again donated all the vegetables and
as usual there were many comments about how tasty they
were.
This time was slightly different to the previous suppers as
seven brave volunteers sweated it out in the kitchen cooking
for 31 guests. On the menu this time was pumpkin soup, pork fillet
stuffed with chestnut, vegetarian chestnut, stilton and ale
pie with seasonal vegetables followed by apple, pear and quince
charlotte and sheep's yogurt, all for the bargain price of £7
ahead!
There was a lovely atmosphere and despite the large portions
many people came back for seconds!
We are planning to have another supper at the end of January, a
New Year celebration.
Finally on a practical note it is essential that people book and
pay in advance. Your payment pays for the ingredients which we
start buying 5-6 days before the event. I had to turn away about
five people this time because we had already planned amounts
and shopping lists etc, please don't be disappointed again!
