Gourmand Week (1)

We'd usually be away on holiday this week, but other committments mean we're not (I'll be SO glad when that book is finished!).

So, we're eating out a lot instead - as well as doing some interesting cooking.

Saturday, we went to Liaison: wild mushroom velouté, lamb done 2 ways, duck (confit & breast) and some nice cheese.

Sunday, I cooked scallops with a broad bean & pea salad and pheasant with a wine sauce, peas and garlic potatoes.

Tuesday (in Wales) visited a gastropub - The Lime Kiln - near Oswestry. Had a decent steak (lots of the food was obviously frozen though).

More to come ...

Hope the book's coming along okay. Really want an autographed copy eventually.

Did the (snort) gastropub sell oysters?

(ducks head.)
