Time to rest

For the last four Saturdays we have hosted some fantastic people at our lovely dining table here in Essex.
I am now cycling to Leytonstone each Saturday to get our veg from the very brilliant OrganicLea stall after trekking up the Woodford hill to WD Chapman for some rather excellent meat. Thanks to our very own chickens for providing the eggs in the ice cream, chocolate delice and tarts. 

Just one more Griddle before the end of the year... booked out for January but there are two places for 1st February and six places for 22nd February. Email us to join in griddleproject@gmail.com 

Berskwell cheese & kale salad (thanks to La Fromagerie), 
Shot of chestnut soup
 Lamb baked in hay, fondant potatoes, garden sauce
 Pork and apple terrine
Pumpkin beignets
Chocolate Delice, satsuma ice-cream, satsuma shortbread

Calm before the storm...

Nah, not talking about the storm a brewing for Monday, talking about our weekend off before we get back to hosting lots of Griddle Nights in November. To be honest, I can't wait really. I miss it. We haven't hosted a night for a while. So we are in Shoeburyness, by the wild winds and stormy Thames Estuary.

Today we had lunch at Osborne's, an amazing outpost of seafood in Leigh-on-Sea. We demolished prawns. roll mops, smoked sprats and dressed crab. Picked up some Cornish Squid - which I peppered. floured and fried as a snack... before we devoured venison steak smothered in shallot and wild mushroom, rum sauce, washed down with just a touch of Marlborogh Pinot Noir. Oooof.

Also on a cheese and Ale mission, so making sure we load our stomachs full of these delights too.

#Shoeburyness fun

Sadly we currently have no availability this year. 7 nights up until Christmas are fully booked... and we've even taken a booking for 11th January 2014.

Wow.

We missed you...

All our August places have now gone.

We have two dates in September... but er, they have already gone too!!!!

So you have to be quicker next time.

There may only be one date in October (one weekend is devoted to running/plodding in Chester Marathon, another attending a fabulous wedding).

The Griddle night is likely to be 26th October, so if you want to join in the fun, why not drop us a line now?
