FOOD: What I Ate Yesterday


Yesterday was actually a bit of a naughty day, with regards to food. Not only was it a Bank Holiday, it was also our 5th Anniversary of being together. We don't really celebrate it as such, mainly because the Wedding Anniversary takes over from this one, but it's nice to see that date on the calendar and reminisce a little. So, we actually decided to go out for tea, hence the naughty food.

Breakfast
Chris found some leftover bacon in the fridge that needed using up so he made me a bacon butty. Of course, I opted for brown sauce, it is by far superior to tomato ketchup. The bacon was from the premium range in Co-Op and we tend to go for wholemeal/seeded bread.

Apparently, that wasn't enough for me, so I had a shredded wheat with a drizzle of honey and semi-skimmed milk. This was washed down with a glass of semi-skimmed milk and a half a small tumbler of orange juice.

Lunch
We actually ate breakfast quite late and had a productive afternoon of  doing the food shop and a few odd jobs around the house. I was still pretty full from my huge breakfast so I just kept myself hydrated with a few glasses of water.

Tea
We decided to eat out quite early and headed to The Stable in Newquay. The Stable is a pizza, pie and cider restaurant situated right on Fistral Beach. The atmosphere is always really relaxed here and boy do they know how to make pizzas! If you are a fan of the more authentic, thin crusts then this is the place to go!

To start with, we shared a garlic and mozzarella pizza bread. This is my favourite type of garlic bread.

I then went for their monthly special which was chicken, field mushrooms and wild garlic drizzled with a wild herb aioli. The wild garlic may look like spinach, but don't be fooled! It was actually quite strong and peppery, but really enjoyable.

We weren't planning on having a dessert but when I saw chocolate brownie with clotted cream on the menu, I just couldn't resist. It was every bit as wonderful as it looks. I opted for a pint of lemonade as I needed to quench my thirst, but they have self service tap water available with bottles and glasses that we also helped ourselves to.

Snacks
So I was planning on having an apple and a yogurt when we got home, but this plan went out of the window when I remembered we had got some Cadbury's chocolate fingers on offer from ASDA. Don't worry, I only had around 5! I also kept myself hydrated with more water throughout the rest of the evening.
