Xmas Lunch 2

We had a family lunch at the Shorehouse. It was a 35 degree day, so nice to be by the beach. The place was jam packed and parking at a premium; the others disapprove of my secret weapon (JL’s disability sticker) but even this was no help today. We had a long wait for drinks, because everybody was ordering exotic cocktails and the bar staff were under pressure.

Me with the menu.


The menu was a bit pretentious, full of foreign words that had to be googled (ceviche, nduja, vacherin). We started off with oysters:

I ordered fish of the day (goldband snapper), E had a big piece of octopus, C had roasted cauliflower. She also had some non-alcoholic champagne which was rather underwhelming:

Before we left home, I took this photo of Rocky in his favourite spot: the car boot:

He stayed home with a few treats!
