Dear Sandy,
Very many thanks for a most enjoyable evening in good company on Thursday – I loved the menu from the moment I first saw it and it certainly did not disappoint in the eating!! Pork is probably my least favourite meat but the herby stuffed roll was excellent and complemented by the tasty risotto – comfort food at its best and finished off by the very lovely pear in marsala.

- Thanks Sandy for a wonderful meal last night. The flavours were fantastic! I will definitely be trying the recipes when I persuade someone to give me Jerusalem !
Thanks to everyone for good company.. Fiona - I am not saying that all the meals I have had aren’t were delicious – but this one was even better. Peter
The menu was potato latkes with a dill crème fraiche, followed by slow cooked beef shin with sweet spices, prunes and leeks served with Mejedra rice (cooked with lentils and fried onions), followed by poached pears in a chocolate sauce.

No weird dreams! It must have been the currants we could see lots of – and they did seem a bit softer than juniper berries.
Thanks for a lovely meal and evening, Sandy.

We knew we were in for a treat when we booked ourselves into Sandy’s dining club last Thursday. Sandy’s cooking never disappoints. Surrounded by interesting objects on the shelves that once stocked coffee, olive oil and various other staples found in a food lovers larder, we enjoyed a delicious three course meal. We particularly enjoyed the Belly Pork with it’s subtle flavours of fennel and spices followed by a pear and ginger sponge so light it melted in the mouth. Although it was a little daunting arriving for a meal with eight other guests, many of whom we didn’t know or know well, by the end of the evening we were all laughing at shared jokes. A thoroughly enjoyable evening masterfully hosted by Sandy – we will be coming back.
