Best sunday dinner you've ever had outside your home environment

We have got a lot of very serious threads going on at the moment so I thought let's lighten it up a bit and find out where you enjoyed your best Sunday Dinner outside your home and perhaps share with us when and where it was so members might be tempted to go along and try it out.

There are many places I've been to which have been outstanding but today we went to the RAILWAY HOTEL IN BORTH,CEREDIGION and had a fantastic dinner (Salt Marsh Lamb) topped off with one of the best creme brulle's I've ever tasted......a 5 star recommendation.

What about you?

The Quay INN Parkgate on the Wirral Cavery is excellent and the price is cheap too.

Otter Nurseries, Ottery St Mary (near Honiton). Get to walk around the gardens afterwards to walk it all off.

The Cross Keys, Canonbie. Bit out of the way, though...

The Harbour Inn at Solva. Hell of a meal and a nice setting.

The Fox, Patching http://www.thefoxpatching.co.uk/ This place, a pleasant walk from where I live, used to be a fair-to-good pub on the A27 but they made a new road system which by-passed it and now they watch (or more like hear) all the traffic zooming past the other side of a hedge! So they focussed on food and now you have to book most nights and for Sunday lunch.

There's menu PDFs in the link, but, like most places the specials won't be there and the specials here nearly always include game from Angmering Park (where Colin Cowdrey lived and his widow still does - fabulous place, an immaculate stud farm in thousands of acres of woodland with a solid flint bow-fronted mansion at its centre. You enter via an electric gate which opens with a push of a button on a post, a sign above it reads 'press with conviction').

The gamekeeper gives them pheasants etc in return for the use of the place for a drink and a meal after a shoot .... for the whole shoot that is.

Post a link if you can, so menus can be drooled over, or for a map, whatever .... here's the links so far. Mike Salway's white swan is the winner for me so far!

Thanks for finding the Cross Keys on the web, John. It's ages ago since I was there. In those days it was still an old fashioned Border pub with a small restaurant attached. Amazingly, the gammon steak and the salmon I used to enjoy there are still on the menu (prices have gone up, though...)

PS I would have liked to nominate The Huntsman in, I think, Nicholforest just south of the Border. The locals knew it as "Annie Jane's". I spent many a pleasant hour there when i was working in Langholm. Long gone now, alas.
