Re: Wed 16 Feb 2022: A Cellar Reduction Party
The current menu at B&F (from the website) is:
Re: Wed 16 Feb 2022: A Cellar Reduction Party
The order, including special steaks, is (so far):
If you want special steaks then need to pre-order, but assume we'll pre-order anyway?
Any more?
Will submit order at the end of this week.

I'm afraid I'm going to have to drop out. Apologies!
Re: Wed 16 Feb 2022: A Cellar Reduction Party
Mac n cheese has made a reappearance-hurrah! I will have that for starter please followed by steak (m-r) and fries with green beans and shallots. Thanks.
Re: Wed 16 Feb 2022: A Cellar Reduction Party
I’ve asked what will the Soup of the Day, and was offered choices. It will be, I now know, Leek and Potato. Which is therefore my starter.

Sending food pre-order to B&F later today. If anyone hasn’t yet ordered do so now or you’ll have to order on the night.
Re: Wed 16 Feb 2022: A Cellar Reduction Party
Food order submitted. Harry will need to order on the night.
Re: Wed 16 Feb 2022: A Cellar Reduction Party
I'm very sadly having to drop out of this, I have tried very hard to move something but very sadly can't. Have a great evening all.

The Warre 1970 has become (indeed, always was) a Dow 1970.

Re: Wed 16 Feb 2022: A Cellar Reduction Party
Work half day. I could double-decant at home. Or I could arrive circa 14:00 for a late lunch and decanting there. Which, with help from a few others, might have us looking, by say 16:30, embarrassed at some empties. Team theory?

Am back to back in meetings until 1815 tomorrow, alas...
Re: Wed 16 Feb 2022: A Cellar Reduction Party
Travelling up from New Forest so can’t make an early kick off.
Re: Wed 16 Feb 2022: A Cellar Reduction Party
Grovelling apologies to all. The order got to B&F an hour after their supplier cut-off yesterday morning, so unfortunately no special steaks tonight. At the moment it's assumed that everyone will have the standard 240g sirloin instead. If you want something different please change your order when you arrive.
A hopefully interesting bottle will accompany me this evening that clearly won't make up for the disappointment but might help soften the blow.
Re: Wed 16 Feb 2022: A Cellar Reduction Party
As we are only nine, no need to pre-pour.

Re: Wed 16 Feb 2022: A Cellar Reduction Party
I should be at the B&F around 17.30.
Julian will have been there on his own since 14.30. What could possibly have gone wrong?
