It was granddaughters 21st birthday today. 10 family members went to an Italian restaurant in Ross on Wye tonight. The food was fabulous. I had mussels in a tomato and red wine sauce with chunky bread for dipping. Followed by whitebait and a mixed salad. Absolutely delicious.
Only problem was it was our U3A skittles and lunch today. I had preordered a month ago steak and kidney pudding chips and peas before I knew about tonight's outing. I did leave most of the pastry though.
I was good tonight and didn't have a dessert! My main course was really a starter. I feel absolutely stuffed.
Hi Caren, we are visiting a friend near Ross in July, would you be kind enough to tell me the name of the Italian restaurant. Always looking for good eateries.
Daughter had made a birthday cake in the shape of 21.
Decorated with a chocolate type spread then covered in hundreds of mini maltesers, jelly beans and lots of other sweets. It was brilliant.
I do too, Mamya.....once entertained a Canadian visitor...young lad and he ordered whitebait....
When it came he turned green and left the table muttering ...eyes....eyes....these Brits are feeding me eyes..... :-)
Sapelesam it was something like Avelinas. Just off the market square. I was so surprised at the number of eateries in Ross. Far more than is the average.
But this one was excellent, the service was superb too.
My last couple of visits, I have struggled to find good eateries, need a locals knowledge I suppose. Thanks for the info, if you can recommend anywhere else, I will be grateful.
