It's the grand reopening of James May's pub, The Royal Oak at Swallowcliffe this evening. We visited for a sneak peek last week. Here's what we had - the food was excellent (and I'm not just saying that because James is my boss and all that...).
-Pastrami salmon, pickled cucumber, horseradish
-Braised featherblade of beef, creamed potatoes, crispy onions, smoked bacon, broccoli, carrot, braising jus
-Chocolate orange affogato
All washed down with plenty of wine, picked by James. The Sancerre was a particular highlight 👌.
Are any lovely FoodTribers planning a visit?
