We had sirloin, beef bourguignon, fish & chips and 2 childrens' meals spaghetti bolognase and cheeseburger & fries. Steak was exceptional with a good texture and char and a gorgeous aged 'blue-cheesy' aroma. It was served on a bed of waxy potatoes and halved Brussels sprouts and topped with a poached or roasted shallot and veal demiglaze. Beef bourguignon was served with a satisfying cap of puff pastry and a quenelle of potato mash enriched, possibly, with egg yolk or cheese. Fish and chips was textbook and generous - in fact all the dishes were quite large - not the least of which were the children's dishes. We finished with the tallest lemon meringue pie I'd ever seen and a perfectly wobbly blueberry cheesecake. Bill came to $50/head including soft drinks.
