My first night in England was simply aristocratic. Staying at the Goodwood Park Hotel is charming. I am enjoying myself, and am beginning to exude that characteristic Brit haughty condescension no less! Look:
Ok, perhaps characteristic Brit dry humor would be more accurate.
Before I came, for some reason, I had the idea in my head (probably from Michelle and Mom and Dad) that English food is one of the most boring cuisines on the planet. Please dispel this notion immediately. I had a couple of excellent meals and I haven’t even left the hotel. Beginning with a steaming-hot Leek and Potato soup, the Braised Lamb dinner was absolutely the most tender and juicy lamb I have ever had, served with pan-seared veggies and slivers of pear. I never imagined that pears could taste so perfect cooked in a lamb gravy… wow. The next time someone says English cuisine is boring, i’ll just say “What the deuce?”
Hahahahahahaha! What a fine photo to make me laugh this morning. Even kitty is rolling over in a fit of laughter. Okay, not really. But he is rolling over for a belly rub
Please tell me you had your boss take that photo. Also sweet place to stay.
Hah, love it Dave! Good chattin’ with ya yesterday
If you’re there on a Sunday, you MUST track down a Sunday Roast. What is a ‘Sunday Roast,’ you ask? The most delicious meal of your life. It’s usually a big meal with huge portions of “homestyle” food and best of all: Yorkshire pudding. Mmmm.
