Guest Report post Posted November 4, 2011 Just received this from Mark..... Hi All Sorry for the delay but we have now finalised plans for the Christmas Party J Due to the ever rising costs this year and after canvassing members we have opted for a lunchtime meal on Saturday 10th December, at the Three Ways Hotel, Mickleton (home of the pudding club) where we held the dinner last year. We will meet around 12pm to sit down at 1pm and will be in the alcove area we had last year. The Three Ways lunch menu comes out at £22.50 per person; comparing this with the dinner options we received all of which were over £30 per person and some as high as £40, we thought it better value this year. To secure the booking we require a deposit of £10 per person (or the full amount if you prefer) by Friday 18th November together with your meal choices. Could you please send your deposit and meal choices to Matthew Willmott at 2 Byron Close, Walton Cardiff, Tewkesbury, Glos, GL20 7RB or give it to one of the committee at our next meeting on 16th Nov at the Feathered Nest. If you wish to pay by cheque please make it out to “AROC Cotswold Section†Starters Roasted Tomato and Butternut Squash Soup with a Chilli Crème Fraiche Chicken Liver Parfait with Spiced Quince Chutney Rillette of Salmon and Tuna with a Beetroot and Red Onion Salsa Baked Goats Cheese with Pear, Walnuts, Rocket and Balsamic Main Course Roast Nut Cutlets with a Creamed Leek Sauce Roast Local Turkey with Chipolata and a Sage, Onion and Bacon Stuffing.
