Le Manoir - part 2

Time for some pictures of the meal.

The starters:

Martin had soup and everyone else had the pate.

The pate's close-up opportunity.

I rather think our waiter thought if he offered to take a photo of us all I might put my camera away.

No such luck!

On to the main course:

No one could resist the pork.

The cheese board wasn't so much of a board as a table. We were totally spoilt for choice.

The puddings:

Apricots and strawberries

Coffee and truffles in one of the lounges:

Le Manoir aux Quat'Saisons, part 1

Way back at the end of July we spent a couple of days at my sister and brother-in-law's lovely house. Whenever we visit we're guaranteed the most gorgeous food, but this time we were treating ourselves. To celebrate our and their wedding anniversary we went to Le Manoir, oh and Alex came too.

The food, staff, building and gardens were all wonderful and I have lots of photos - I'm pretty sure I nearly drove everyone mad with taking them all!

Something to entertain while reading the menu

The wine menu needed careful perusal

Beautiful plates
