I love this place. I see no recent comments so just to assure this website readers – it is just as good as when it first opened I could eat my fav burt butter and sage ravioli every day

Hi grace-Oh dear, although I have to say at first I asked what was in the middle section! I didn’t even think of the pips

Hi Cakelaw-It was really lovely and a great setting for a romantic night out

Hi Maria-Great minds think alike! I’m not sure how it was made but if you find a recipe, please let me know! I’d love to make some.

Mmm that sounds lovely! You’re making me hungry!

Hi Y-I liked the windows last year (I don’t really remember the other years) but I’ve always found elves cute and I liked how the puddings were carried into the oven on a string.

Oh wow. The David Jones’ window looks much better than previous years. I looove the food theme. Pendolino’s pasta looks great too.

I think the food theme Christmas window would have my vote too

I LOVED that marrow ball! I really want to try some! Maybe I will Google them to see if I can find a recipe??

I also thought the olive bread looked amazing too.. dense and moist?

Speaking of polenta I made some last night.. a side dish and also a Weight Watchers recipe. It was soft polenta served with some mushrooms done in a pan with a small amount of olive oil, garlic and halved cherry tomatoes.. sprinkled with thyme and finished with balsalmic vinegar. It was nice on top of the polenta.

i just saw a rerun of the top chef episode where they split into teams to create their own restaurants. one team had a major boo-boo–they forgot to put out a plate for the olive pits. this post reminded me of that.
