Hi! How were your weekends? Did you enjoy the sunshine? I was working (boo), but on Sunday night B and I went out for a fancy date (yay!). We went to the Menier to see the Stephen Sondheim musical Roadshow, which has just opened in London. We'd been to the Menier once before, but didn't have the chance to eat there. They have a lovely little restaurant, all exposed brickwork and metal beams, so we were keen to try it on our next visit.
We ordered the two sharing plates (one carnivore, one vegetarian), which were massive - heaps and heaps of thinly-sliced flatbreads, pots of different dips, salad leaves, cold meats, olives, and falafels. Mmm, falafels. I could eat you all day.

Look at the lovely colour of that beetroot dip - isn't it gorgeous? Beetroot, you're pretty. The vibrant orange dip was sweet potato.

The meat plate had some lovely little sausages that were flavoured with cumin - they were spicy and delicious. The pressed ham was a bit under-seasoned, and would have been nice with some cornichons or something to perk up its blandness, but it's hard to get everything right in a huge plateful of goodies like this.
We made such a dent in the plates that the waiter congratulated us on our efforts. A proud moment.
