Groundhog day

We had arranged to return to The Crow's Nest for dinner tonight. We ambled down to the restaurant and were shown to our table. A couple immediately after us were turned away. It was good that the Gorse Fox had booked. We had a nice little table for 2 by the window and were greeted by the manager as if we were old friends.

The evening menu was more extensive than we had seen at lunchtime. In addition to the menu, there were a number of 'specials'. The Silver Vixen had a skate wing. It was so thick and succulent that it was almost like a white steak. The Gorse Fox  had a Frito Mixto which incorporated salt and chilli squid, cod goujons, prawns, and some battered cod; this was served with salad and tortillas. It was very good indeed.

When we had finished we strolled along the harbour and looked at the expensive boats moored in the sheltered basins.

Back up at our room we found that our Anniversary was, indeed, the gift that kept on giving. We had another card from the hotel, a plate of cookies, another towel sculpture, and another bottle of bubbly.  This hotel certainly knows how to make your stay special.
