A Grand Fine Swine with Good Wine

16/September – Grand Hotel, Burnley

We have been to a number of food and wine events at the Grand Hotel in Burnley, e.g. the Wednesday Duck and Pinot night, and this was a special one. Many thanks to Katie and the Grand staff as well as Adam Foster of Syrahmi wines and Foster y Rocco, with well known sommelier Lincoln Riley, who supplied all of the wines tonight.

We are here for Pig but the menu is pretty impressive too, not just pig.

Fine Swine with Good Wine Menu

We are in the bar area having a few drinks when the first two snacks come out:

Broad beans, mint and safata
Quinoa salad with Flathead, etc.
Fiano with the Canapes, very refreshing

We are then seated in the Como room with one quite long table.

The Guests from one end with Katie serving
Guests from the Other End
The Reds Line-up
The Rose with the First Course

The first course is brought along with the Rose.

Carpaccio of Cobia

I had had to Google Cobia to find out what it was, very King Fish like and quite tasty.

Duck Agnolotti

Then the main course arrives:

The Pigs de Resistance

Too busy eating Pig to take many photots but this was the remnants we could not finish
Dessert was Scottish Cheese

Definitely a very good night. The Grand Hotel Richmond (Burnley) is highly recommended. Get on their VIP list!
