The second of two brilliant dinner parties this weekend, and also the second Birthday Celebration! Catering for a surprise 50th for my namesake was a complete pleasure from start to finish and with my Beef fillet Wellington as the star course, it was always going to be a special evening. Sharon had organised a perfect day for Gary, keeping me a closed secret from the beginning. Walking into the lounge with the canapes was the first that Gary knew I was in the house and I followed with four more courses, ending the night with some delightful petit fours.
It was an honour and a delectation to be invited to join the table for a beer after dessert. everyone made me feel so welcome and it was the perfect end to a great Dinner Party.
