There is nothing more magical than a beautiful historic restaurant moodily lit up on a winters night . Readers is such a spot . The interior has an eclectic mix of cat themed keepsakes which are really cool not kitchen . We were celebrating a...50th and Carol the owner and chef was incredibly accommodating.
She served a delightful menu which started with a carrot and sweet potatoe soup and superb homemade bread with pâtés. This was followed with a table of delectable starters incorporating aubergine and tomatoe stack; a crispy mixed salad with almonds and fried Camembert. The mains we had carried from ostrich steak , to chicken and cranberry pie and smoked trout with wasabi butter . All super , although the sweet potatoe side was so outstanding I would happily drive back there just for that .
We had no room for dessert but I am sure , judging by the rest of the dishes , it would be delicious .More
