“Given the nature of the
hotel I'd expected the menu to feature items like brown Windsor
soup and roast beef and Yorkshire pudding, but of course things
have moved on in the hotel trade. The menu now was richly endowed
with ten-guinea words that you wouldn't have seen on a menu ten
years ago - 'noisettes', 'tartare', 'duxelle', 'coulis', 'timbale'
- ... I had, and I quote, ‘Fanned Galia Melon and Cumbrian
Air-Dried Ham served with a Mixed leaf Salad' followed by 'Fillet
Steak served with a crushed Black Peppercorn Sauce flamed in Brandy
and finished with Cream', which together were nearly as pleasurable
to read as to eat.”
