This week, Chloe is serving up the perfect pairing 🥂🐟

Our baked salmon fillet with hasselback potatoes, tender stem broccoli, pea & parsley beurre blanc, and crispy fried onions matched beautifully with the Morandé Pionero Sauvignon Blanc Reserva 🐟🍋

The fresh citrus notes of the wine perfectly complement the richness of the salmon and creamy beurre blanc, a pairing made for riverside dining 🌿

Meet Fern, an 8 year old Border Collie who came to visit us this week ❤️

Fern enjoys long walks, crisps, and (most importantly) a cheeky dip of curry sauce 👀🍟

Fun fact: she’s exceptionally good at shaking hands… especially if treats are involved 🤝🐾

We loved meeting Fern and giving her plenty of fuss during her visit! 🍻😀
