Mutton Cutlets
Supreme of chicken a la Stanley
Sirloin of beef
Roast duckling and apple sauce
Veal and baked ham

All served with vegetables and potatoes.

Anybody want to come?

Perhaps it would help if I explained Micks comment.

Mick is referring to the fact that I am unable to concieve - he finds this extremely funny!

Well it takes all sorts I suppose.

Is the inability to have children a crime? I must be a criminal too then. I suppose that is better than being an insensitive pathetic moron.

Can I have a sirloin and apple sauce sandwich and a baked ham one too. I would like both puddings. Will there be any ice in the drinks?

[friedgreentomato]

Not a crime Wolf more a rod for a group to beat me with!!

You are more than welcome to come and pick at what you want from the menu.

Riccor - its OK I have made peace with it and there is always hope - it seems to affect others more than it affects me tbh.

I am full of admiration for your titanic themed dinner parties, so much effort and detail, absolutely top notch x

[friedgreentomato]

Thank you cazz although this year is all a bit last minute!

How long have you been doing this fgt, a number of years? It all sounds lovely, do you all get dressed up too?

[friedgreentomato]

This is the fifth year I have done it - different menu each time.

We dress in black tie.

[DTCwordfan]

that's all, just a black tie.

This does sound even more interesting.....

(hope it goes well)

Can I come if I skip the mutton and veal? I promise to behave, and will let someone else have my champers.
I could be the designated driver.

Looked up the origins of "A la Stanley"... Turns out Stanley's not some chef, but was a noted explorer, who liked to add a bit of curry powder to everything he cooked. [Sir Henry Morton Stanley (1841–1904)]. New York Public Library has examples of menus from the 1900s, both from ships and from city restaurants, that show various dishes bearing Stanley's name.

Do you have to start at lunchtime, or are you still eating well into the night....?

[friedgreentomato]
