The tao of The Dude
Yeah? Well, that’s, like, your opinion, man!
The Dude abides.
Annoying end to an otherwise good day
We all went to visit Gruyere and the Maison Callier in Broc today. We had a good time visiting the Giger museum and Gruyere castle, and then having raclette for lunch.
We had a bit of an unpleasant surprise when we realised that the window of our patio door was cracked, from the inside :-( We have no clue how that happened, but now I’m fretting about getting it fixed.
Unless we can show it’s a manufacturer defect, it’ll probably go on our civil responsibility insurance. It’s why we have insurance in the first place, but it’s still a worry and a pain.
You can take the woman out of Leicester…
But you can’t take the Leicester out of the woman. How else would you explain belching out loud at a Michelin 2-star restaurant?
Company aside, the food was brilliant. Veal in a lemongrass soup, foie gras with strawberries and a balsamic glaze, grilled fish on tomatoes and fennel with a basil foam, bison with spring veg and a mushroom emulsion, a very nice cheese board and a chocolate and cardamom sorbet. And wine. Lots of very nice wine.
We like the Petit Manoir.
I’m an expert.
Sadly, I’ve been in meetings that went something like this in previous employment :)
