What do you think to this?
*trout with almond and herb crust (small pieces of trout fillet with with a crust made from crackers, fresh thyme, ground almonds and black pepper served with toasted almonds and lemon)
*steak and ale pie (braised brisket in ale in a short crust pie, with mashed potatoes and steamed veg)
*rhubarb charlotte with vanilla ice cream
Any suggestions for improvements or alterations? What veg? (not much ready on the plot bar rhubarb!)
First course might be better with a sauce. Seems a bit dry. A nice hollandaise sauce would probably help.
Apart from that, happily await the invitations ;D

great idea, thanks!
Maybe something green. A salad? The meat pie sounds intriguing, never had one.
You have never had meat pie? Oh sweetheart you need to eat one..........they are totally lovely mmmmmm ;D
Brisket sounds good but shin of beef has soooooo much flavour imho :P
For the steamed veggies I would do carrots and tenderstem broccolli, the colours together on a plate against the pie would look great! ;D
