Everything will be preceded by my Grand Fromage - a cheese platter with a selection of cheeses including Gouda and Stilton.

We will start with Bouillabaisse served in a small expresso cup with a light, sweet cracker, followed by Foie gras terrine with piccalilli, roasted rhubarb and Coteaux du Layon gelée. This will prepare us for Baked Gloucester cod fillet with mussels and crab tamale; almond garam masala sauce, then a selection of prime beef .

All of this will culminate with my famous Grand Dessert - a selection of desserts including spring rolls with vanilla rice and grapefruit. I include a Croquembouche, a tower of cream puffs filled with vanilla pastry cream.
I will also have a selection of my family favorites including; Almond Cream Crepes, and a nice Raspberry-Almond Torte.

Don't forget a club soda spirtz to keep the palate refreshed so as not to lose any taste between courses.

That's about what we will do this afternoon.

Have a great burger!
