Today B dined alone. A travesty you may say but F had pressing travel arrangements which couldn't be postponed. So off B went in search of comforting treats. His destination was the famed Monster Mash but after some research he fell upon this....

From the mouthwatering menu of various sausages, mashes and gravies, B choose his Scottish favourite - veggie haggis with all the trimmings and a jolly Ginger beer on the side. The haggis arrived as a three layered treat - a bottom layer of mashed potato, topped with a parsnip and turnip mash, finished off with a layer of veggie haggis. This was then smothered in lashings of the most delicious tomato gravy which had a nice little kick. A slice of white to mop up the juices and B would have been in heaven!
The ethos of this eatery is simple - quality, tasty food at a decent price and for £7.50, B's cockles had been warmed from head to toe by Mums.
The service too was top notch - how rare it is to have a waiter who enjoys his job.
B wishes Mums all the best for the future and would like to congratulate them on their successes in the face of adversity. Don't forget folks....what goes around comes around...that restaurant a few doors up better watch out...!
Free Range Rating... 11/12 (if only F had been there, it may have pushed B to award a full dozen)
what a lovely review - thank you so much Benedict & Florentine, it makes us very emotional when people get what we do. Cheers, to your very good health
