    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    Oh my goodness. I'm so so so full. It's so worth it!

    I had:
    - appetiser of celeriac and butter bean soup with a black pudding sprinkle served in an espresso cup
    - starter was a tempura battered soft shell crab with an aisan style salad
    - main was the house burger topped with bacon and cheese, with onion rings and chunky chips and side salad (which I couldn't finish, so DH did)
    - pudding was a chocolate and peanut butter mix - chocolate mousse, chocolate crisp (like a chocolate crispie cake but a bite size piece), homemade mini magnum, chocolate fondant (SO good) and peanut butter ice cream with a peanut brittle on the side. HEAVEN.

    I want to go back just for the pudding. It was that good.

    I now don't need to eat for a week... :o
