Lunch at the Star at Harome
I love to go to the Star at Harome as it always lends itself to any occasion so when the girls rang up to say they were going I didn't have to be asked twice.The four of us meet up for a girlie lunch -One time we went it was for the wake of our ferret as we had run out of birthday and anniversaries for that year - and we were soon delving into the menu . The choice is the worst thing about going to the Star. Andrew Pern always comes up trumps.Each of us had something different and it was a bit try some of mine and do try this -it is wonderful.I had taken the camera with every intention of taking somefood on plate shots to make you all down tools and rush over for your supper but I forgot until nearly the end of the meal,that was the only disappointment of that day.It was very busy for a winters day lunchtime which was nice to see and also adds atmosphere when there are other people about. the staff are very good at their jobs and all credit to the one who keeps the home fires burning -All adding to the enjoyment of the time we spent at the Star. Again a huge thank you to the Pern team for a lovely few hours.We could always say it was to celebrate my silver award in the marmalade festival but really there is never any need to make an excuse to eat first class food in a first class place.
