Before our 2nd lockdown, for my birthday treat last month, my husband took me The Swan for a traditional Sunday Roast. It was a beautiful day as the sun was shining and our table was by the riverside so it felt quite romantic even at lunchtime. My brother in law and niece kindly offered to babysit the boys for us so that we can grab a nice birthday lunch.
I swear, you can’t beat a Sunday Roast in a traditional pub! The restaurant was spaced out and we had a view looking over the river, the staff was very friendly and it felt COVID-Safe. But more importantly, the food was amazing and the portions was huge! I was so stuffed!! I opted for the roast beef and this came with a huge yorkshire pudding, green vegetables, cauliflower cheese, parsnips, red cabbage, roast potatoes and gravy. Normally, we would share our yorkshire puddings with the boys so for the first time, we didn’t have to share with them!!
Even though we were so stuffed with our mains, we still wanted a pudding!! We went for the passion fruit macaron with coconut ice cream, preserved raspberries and toasted granola! Luckily, the dessert was a reasonable size so that we can share! It felt quite refreshing after a heavy mains! Needlessly to say we didn’t eat anything for dinner and the next day, I went for a 10k run to work it off!!! 🙂
