I am hungry and have some time to kill between appointments that are close together and a Prêt sandwich just doesn’t cut it today. Fortunately I on the doorstep of Terminus and pop in hoping I can grab a table for a quick lunch.There’s some tasty looking simple dishes in this clean-line restaurant.There’s steak, burger and a chicken risotto.I opt instead to have two starters with one complemented with some of my favourite mash potatoes.I had a delicious plate of Loch Fyne smoked salmon with potatoes pancakes and horseradish cream.The potato pancake was soft and fluffy and with a great punchy horseradish cream. I then had Asparagus with mushroom duxelle, poached egg and Hollandaise sauce which was another scrummy winner.Unfortunately I was too pushed for time for a dessert.I ordered one but it wasn’t arriving speedily enough so regrettably I had to pay and run.I haven’t eaten in Terminus for ages, it can be quite a noisy restaurant so not ideal for say a lunchtime business dinner, it’s buzzy, cavernous and you can sit and watch the frenetic activity in their kitchen. I'd like to visit again when I am not in such a mad hurry. But two fast forks for Terminus.
EATS, COOKS & BLOGS
The random ramblings of a self confessed foodie diva gathering all tasty morsels of food related trivia and regurgitating them for your delectation.
Less of a weblog more of a grublog!
Bon appetit!
"Tell me what you eat, and I will tell you what you are"
"Ask not what you can do for your country, Ask what's for lunch" - Orson Welles
"When you feast, devour it all" - Tolstoy
Food, like a loving touch or a glimpse of divine power, has that ability to comfort.
Enchant, stay beautiful and graceful, but do this, eat well. Bring the same consideration to the preparation of your food as you devote to your appearance. Let your dinner be a poem, like your dress.
I wish you a merry Christmas, I wish you a merry Christmas, I wish you a merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
One cannot think well, love well, sleep well, if one has not dined well
Cooking is like love, it should be entered into with abandon or not at all
Here's to another year of eating fabulously!
They dined on mince, and slices of quince, which they ate with a runcible spoon
Bear in mind that you should conduct yourself in life as at a feast
Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Christmas is coming, the goose is getting fat
'tis the season to be jolly, tra la la la la... la la la la
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire, Jack Frost nipping at your nose...
Dine we must and we may as well dine elegantly as well as wholesomely
Full of mellow fruitfulness
Melting in your mouth and not in your hand!
Eating the Big Apple, one bite at a time
(Not always about mash!)
It's tasty, tasty very very tasty! It's very tasty!
