The brief for the 70th Birthday was a quiet soiree in the bar, handful of friends, Cornish pasties and stuff a bit like tapas but not really Spanish, more Chinesey or Indian.
Hmm. For a start the Cornish Pasty has been recently PDO’d so I’m going to quickly point out we made Pasties in the style of a West Country lass, which, seeing as I’m from Dorset, isn’t far from the truth. Plus they were smaller. Much smaller, almost canapé sized not unlike an Empanada. Sadly, I don’t have a photo of these as they consumed the lot before I could focus…..
However I do have the following:- 
Chinese chop suey in little carton style pots
and falafel with tahini dressed salad on miniature pitas with garlic sauce (for the kebab type element).
Chicken ‘Ruby Murray’ on tiny little roti; they’re espresso sized plates…
Couldn’t leave out good old fish and chips in little seaside buckets
and miniature ‘Beville’ type cheese and onion toasties for added ‘naff but nice cafe’ authenticity
The only thing I forgot was mini pizza and it would have made a superb students breakfast this morning, had there been so much of a scrap left over….
