My better half has an appointment in the city at 5pm so decided to go on the train and have a stroll around the Xmas markets first. The afterwards find a nice restaurant for a meal and bottle of wine.
We discovered La Vecchia Scuola, Lower Petergate was well impressed

Yes we like that one, been a few times. Ended up close by in Cafe Rouge as Cathy fancied their Duck meal (that and we had 25% off the bill ).
I ended up with Chicken, Herb mash and veggies,very nice indeed, helped by a bottle of Malbec.
Keep your face always toward the sunshine - and shadows will fall behind you.
Just some cheese and biscuits this evening. My two daughters organised Sunday lunch today at our current favourite hostelry, The Horse & Groom, Hare Hatch. Got the menu's early last week and it included 'Christmas dinner'. I ordered the Christmas dinner but was the only one. Three had ordered Roast beef, Yorkshire pudding which looked fabulous and evidently was. I was extremely disappointed in the Christmas dinner. The turkey was like what you buy in the supermarket for sandwiches! Absolutely tasteless.
Wish I'd ordered the roast beef and Yorkshire pud. The glass of red was decent. Roll on Christmas day, my daughter is a fabulous cook and will serve up a 'proper' Christmas dinner!
