D-Day plus 3 of the Churchill Conference

Yesterday was the last day of the conference. It is now Saturday morning and I'm going to write about the Gala Dinner on Thursday night and the Birthday Dinner last night where I met Lady Soames.

During the Gala dinner a man named Charles was my chaperon. He is a very nice man and we had a few good laughs. The dinner was delicious and very filling. Here is the menu:


Seared Tuna in Sesame Seed and Black Pepper Crust

Bundle of Greens and Spicy Prawns

Mango Citrus Vinaigrette


followed by


Grilled Fillet of Beef Tenderloin with Shiraz Wine Reduction

Roasted Balsamic Portobello Mushrooms

Herb and Parmesan Potato Gratin

Granville Market Fresh Vegetables


followed by


Orange Creme Brulee with Star Anise and Phyllo Crisp


followed by


Coffee and Tea


As you can see it was quite delicious indeed. You have seen the pictures of the Gala Dinner so you know I had a good time with the people at my table.


However it was the Birthday Dinner that took the cake. Ha Ha. I was given the honour of...STAY TUNED!
