David (not Dave as previously stated - many apologies) was ‘totally disgusted’ after eating the prawn’s head, brains, stomach, etc.
However, the restorative effects of San Miguel ‘por favor’ and garlic served with mushrooms seemed to prevent any technicolour yawns.
So well done mate - keep up the stirling work!

Excellent scram - although the one I ate at lunchtime was perhaps a little too long.
Barely fitted on the plate - even when curled around!
Scary - especially when served with a barbecue style sauce with curry powder sprinkled on top!

The Rose and Crown in Warwick has just delivered a superb festive menu.
Go there soon - the normal menu is excellent - and enjoy!
It’s on the Market Place next to the statue of the boxer whose name escapes me.

Mulled wine, sausages, pancakes, waffles, doughnuts, gifts, garbage, nuts, Germans and all for a few quid.
It’s a great experience and very funny to be in the middle of it.

Ooh what a drink!
Yogurt, mango puree, water, sugar, lime juice.
Mix it, pour over crushed ice, sprinkle with ground ginger and enjoy!
Fantastic and so, so simple.
