Reason #6 Sheena Needs A Blow Torch


As noted in June 2006 Sheena has a Happy Place in London that doesn't break the bank. Err.. like Harrods and shit like that... Kinda laughed my ass off going back and reading that post from 2 years ago, because when I sat down for dinner last night I ordered EXACTLY the same thing as my last visit.

Starters: warm garlicky olives with toothpicks for spearing. And probably the best house pâté I"ve ever had. Chicken liver mousse terraine with plum onion chutney.

Steak Frites. Good frites, extra thin and crispy.

Creme Brulee to die for. Little specks of real vanilla in the custard. And crispy pane of caramelized sugar protecting the drippy creamy goodness from the harshness of the elements.

England must be beautiful at this time of year... just like over here...
The new leaves, the blossoms...
I swear there are more shades of green, both subtle and profound, than there are colours in the fall...
And the bouquet of spring, especially after a shower...
Is there anything more intoxicating?

Have fun, Sheena.
And, sweet dreams ...

Hi Sheena
Is it a common thing in England to have the bread set up as an INUKSHUK?

Cat's got nine , nine to make time

Nine lives in a hole

A cat's got nine , nine to feel fine

No heart to console

Of course, they will always allow, a 'serious' challenger through, to meet his demise, but in the meantime, they streamline Pride business, save my strength, and graciously allow me more leisure time, to boot...
