The carvery

This is What the Cornish Guardian said about our Carvery....

There are places where a carvery is an excuse to cut down on numbers of waiting staff by letting you carry your own plate, places operated more along the lines of cafeterias than restaurants. Not so here.

We were immediately welcomed and shown to our table. Without delay, the waitress offered us a drink and then rattled off the menu for the day and explained the three sizes of meal available – small (£6.95), medium (£7.95) and large (£8.95). We were offered a jug of iced tap water – and they were notching up the Come Dine With Me points before we'd even seen the food.

It was at this point we bowled them our first googly by revealing that one of us was a vegetarian and asking what was available.

We should, perhaps, have mentioned when booking as a carvery has such carnivorous connotations. But no matter, it was deftly handled and, after due consultation with the chef, we were offered a fresh ratatouille to eat with the many and varied veg of the day – more on those later.

The rest of us were offered a choice of lamb, beef or chicken. We decided and were offered another choice – we could either go up to help ourselves or, if we would prefer, they would bring our meals to the table for us. Now that's what I call a carvery, one that's not an excuse for ditching the waitresses ..
