Begin lunch or dinner with pan fried pigeon breast, quails eggs and apple chutney, seared scallops with brown shrimps, Jerusalem artichoke veloute or poached pear with Stilton Port mousse. Follow it with main course option of Grasmere pork assiette with baby root vegetables, seared Barbary duck breast with braised red cabbage, pumpkin, pine nut and goats' cheese pithivier or whole Maldon partridge with fondant potato. To conclude, consider drambuie semi-freddo, bitter chocolate and spiced orange terrine or plum tart tatin with mulled wine sorbet. Coffee, liqueur or a coffee liqueur adds the finishing touch to the meal. Choice of an aromatic Prosecco Primo Frizzante from Italy, refreshing Chardonnay Emiliana from Chile or Rioja Tempranillo Artesa from Spain adds sparkle to the occasion.
