Late October 2008

Helloooo!!

The clocks are rolling back and night has drawn in. Dank and Drizzle our Winter
chums are in town and Doom and Gloom are stars on the telly! However here at
The Minnis we prefer to be ‘glass half-full’ type of folk and therefore are
inordinately pleased to trumpet in our New Menu with a metaphorical fanfare
befitting Medieval Royalty distributing gold to the masses. Well, perhaps a little
over the top in imagery but we are extremely pleased with the results.

We have tried to keep almost everyone happy, quality-meat eaters, vegetarians, pescatarians
and because we cook from scratch we will try and tackle assorted allergies where
possible. This season we have also introduced the ‘12 until 6’ menu in the
restaurant (weekdays and Saturdays) for those of you hankering after something
light and tasty from the bar but are too afraid to ask. Our Specials will be regularly
updated, farm stocks permitting and Sunday Roasts will be back!
Christmas is looking extraordinarily healthy and although Christmas Day is fully
booked we are still taking bookings for Boxing Day Carvery and Breakfast. Just
don’t leave it until the last minute because you think that shops and television
advertising is all a little premature and thoroughly annoying. That’s how many
folk missed out on Christmas Day here!

Book your Christmas Party Night here too, NOW, many of the Emergency
Services have done so already, their preparedness is to be expected and are hence
leading by example. We don’t just have Hullabaloo, (even if that is all that many
of you want), try a bit of Swing and Jive with ‘The Goosebumps’ instead or
Soul/Funk/Party with ‘Marylebone Jelly’. If Hullabaloo is what you really want
then of course they are here too, but try them in a different guise on a very special
night, Sunday 14th December’s Jazz Gourmet Dinner. ‘D’Jangos Mangos’ make a
rare appearance specialising in their Gypsy Jazz Roots minus a drummer, a truly
chilled out way to enjoy the start of your festivities.

How to end the Festivities? Join us along with the Magnificent Mel Harris for our
‘60s’ New Year’s Eve Fancy Dress Party. A mere 12 measly quid for quality music,
light finger buffet, getting dressed up with stuff from the back of the wardrobe, a
glass of Midnight fizz, fireworks, (weather permitting), having fun and a right old
belly laugh, all on your doorstep! Could you ask for anything more? Yes, we
know you could but for £12 we believe all the former is sufficient!
Happy Halloween, Pre-Season’s Greetings, Season’s Greetings, Christmas,
Hanukkah, Saturnalia, Yule and any other appropriate Winter Festivities we may
have omitted!
