Dinner with friends

Some friends were going on a little trip, and we agreed to feed their cats for them. It wasn’t a huge ask, but on their return they wanted to cook for us as a thank you, and even better for us, they were bringing the food to our house so we didn’t need to drive to them. How thoughtful.

It was only fair then to start with a beautiful bottle of Réaut — Émeraude. Such a bright champagne with peach and honey flavours.

Starter was a rather tasty mushroom soup… which is a real favourite of mine.

…and main was a super yummy beef casserole, warming and very seasonal.
