-------------------------------------------------------------

A low calorie dish topped with Edam cheese. The filling included leeks, mushrooms and chives and a scattering of sunflower seeds




       Classic Spanish Paella with juicy prawns and garlic chicken, always a firm favourite

                                          
              
Lamb meatballs with red onion, mint, cumin, lemon juice and cayenne pepper and a spicy tomato and pepper dip to finish them off




Great combination of Chorizo and cheese with tomatoes, red peppers and potatoes



This salt cod salad tasted amazing and was marinated with spring onions, olive oil, sherry vinegar and lemon juice. Served on a bed of tomatoes




The feisty potatoes are small chunks of fried potatoes with a generous helping of aioli (a garlicky homemade mayonnaise)  and a fiery kick of chilli oil





Flaked tuna and capers  rolled up in a grilled slice of red pepper which were soaked in olive oil, lemon juice, red wine vinegar, garlic, paprika, sugar and dried chilli flakes, yum yum yum yum



Milk infused with lemongrass makes this a creamy chocolate mousse with a very refreshing after taste






Lots of empty plates once again
