How it All Began

Pete and I decided that when we were finally working our dream hours at our respective workplaces, that we would endeavour to try out a new restaurant and have new tasting experiences every Wednesday night. We chose that night as this is basically our "Friday". We now only work Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday every week. I know, you must all be thinking, 'wow, arent' they lucky?', and yes, we are, but after all these years of working so hard (me), it was about time we got to relax (Pete). So, this leads me to our new blog which will be updated weekly after our latest culinary experience. I will try and keep the language simple, which is what I would have liked these restaurants to have done, because I find it really hard sometimes to work out what some of these words in menus mean. After all, who knew that tartare of beef was actually raw beef? I thought it was something in the vein of tartare sauce, so I would have expected a sweet and sour dish...but no! Pete and I found out the hard way when we were in Switzerland and ordered that for dinner one night. If meat was not meant to be cooked, then why did man create the frypan?!
