Family Celebration - The Anchor Ripley

 

A  family birthday outing to the above pub for lunch  was a great celebration of the birthday of mrs maytrees. Only maytrees max and his wife, who live in the CIs Jersey were absent.

My own menu choices were:

 
BURRATA & CHERRY TOMATO (v)
Salsa Verde, Avocado, Crispy Shallots 

TROUT CEVICHE
Cured Trout, Beetroot, Radish, Grapefruit Gel, Pickled Jalapenos
Mains

SOUTH COAST COD
Pan Fried Fillet, Potato Salad, Soft Boiled Egg

Dessert
ETON MESS (V)
Strawberries, Hibiscus Cream, Mini Meringues, Strawberry Sorbet

To drink I enjoyed a couple of glasses of delicious non alcoholic Strawberry and Elderflower smash.

Afterwards we traveled to  the nearby home of maytrees ma where the grandchildren were being cared for by their father. 

Given the continuing heat, I enjoyed with the grand children a couple of  orange ice lollies whilst maytrees min and her husband looked at all the new baby clothes and other items which they may be needing in November 2025 should all go well.

An excellent family celebration.
