This weekend I catered a special surprise Birthday Dinner Party, providing three fabulous courses in the comfort of Kimberley's beautiful home near Wickham. :) I had 7 wonderful guests to cater for, providing a split choice menu for both meat eating and pescetarian guests. :) Cooking in a confined space was a challenge but definitely a good one and it was very rewarding to get out each course to wonderful compliments from everyone. There was also some delicious French Red Wine at the table, which was very welcoming when offered by the lovely Kimberley to sample after I had served the main-course ;) Looked after extremely well by such courteous and welcoming hosts made for a wonderful dinner party and it was my huge pleasure to sit with everyone at the end of the meal ;) I think the Lamb Main-course went don especially well with the carnivores at the table :)
