Fine dining!

Last night we went out to San Pietro in Scunthorpe to celebrate my little brother's 29th birthday. It was definitely an experience!! I have to say while I have always enjoyed a meal out, I'm not one for fancy food. Give me scampi and chips with a slice of lemon any day! I had "Lamb Roast rump of English lamb, elements of smoked garlic, red pepper and black olive, mint pesto filled gnocchi, lamb jus."

Between me and you I prefer my meat dead and well cooked and I was a little afraid that it was going to jump off the plate and sing Baa, Baa Black sheep. The rest of the meal was very nice, and I enjoyed the appetisers. Best of all was the chocolate pyramid for dessert, it was delicious and was exactly what it said it was!


It was nice to just sit around and giggle after so many weeks of stress.  I confess a little bit of the giggling was aimed at one of the waiters who was tall he reminded us of Le Frog from Flushed Away he he!  He was very attentive and did his job well though. 
A nice evening indeed, with a big thank you to Martin and Jamie for babysitting so we could have a much needed night of fun.
