spicy pumpkin soup
many mushrooms and garlic pappardelle with shaved parmesan

stilton on walnut bread

other (somewhat cruel) highlights on the menu were venison cheek, black-faced baby lamb, lobster risotto, pumpkin and goats cheese ravioli, wild cod with champagne and mushroom fricassee, roast suckling pig, hot chocolate fondant with orange ice cream, belgian chocolate and hazelnut tart, giant citron macaroon... it was great!

OMG roast pig.
Baby lamb? Is there any other kind?

That does sound amazing
however it also sounds like the kind of place that would cost more than I earn in a week.

i think it was about £10 a starter, £20 a main and £8-10 a pudding
so not too bad. but the wines were v expensive!

Yeah, that's probably about twice as much
as I normally pay when I go out for dinner. And expensive booze is a bad, bad thing.

EDIT - I googled the menu. Oh my goodness.

Is black-faced baby lamb
One of those outcast sheep?

Quite popular in the Thirties
but gradually fell out of favour when people started to think it was a bit racist.
