  1. As I am the first one to comment to the new menus, I think I should really get the free bottle of wine! No...joking apart, the menus are always amazing and so diverse, and I really appreciate that there are lots of different veggie choices! Matthew

  2. Hmm, I'm just trying to work out if the Halloween Formal menu is in some way themed but can't quite see it if it is. It sounds great in any case!

    Not sure if this is the right place to ask, but what's the idea regarding fancy dress at Halloween Formal? Is it formal wear + some fancy dress items, or just fancy dress?

    ps. i love 'chocolate and zucchini' too. you're probably well in the know, but do check out david lebovitz if he's not on your radar: http://www.davidlebovitz.com
