Well I've been away for the weekend and had a wonderful meal Friday night at Fellinis in Ambleside (Lake District). Starter was marinated aubergine slices with tahini sauce, sun dried tomatoes and salad leaves. Main course was a nut roast wrapped in courgette slices, roast vegetables, mash potatoes and red wine sauce. Saturday night we ate at Zefferellis which was not quite as good but had a great starter of barbecued fennel in black olive dressing. Mediocre pasta dish for main, so made up for it with a scoop of vegan ice cream with espresso shot poured over it. We stayed at Ambleside Manor which is a vegan/vegetarian hotel with amazing breakfasts. Highly recommended for a special occasion (it was my birthday!)
