Dining Out

Last weekend was our wedding anniversary, 6 years in fact. To celebrate we took Charlie off to my parents for a sleepover at Grandmas house. We then headed back down the motorway to a shopping extravaganza in Canterbury. We had a fantastic day buying clothes and music and lunch out in Wagamamas. Back home we had an afternoon snooze then got dolled up for a night out at a Michelin star restaurant in Canterbury called The Abode www.abodehotels.co.uk. We started with cocktails in their champagne bar and then were seated. The restaurant was very classy and we were pampered by the waiters. The menu was a select few dishes of modern English cuisine and although they were incredibly delicious we were rather disappointed in the very slow service. We waited over an hour fro our main course by which time we had consumed nearly all our bottle of very sumptuous wine and were feeling decidedly drunk. However, we had such a great evening and it was great to go out and treat ourselves. We finished the weekend off having a lovely long lie in on Sunday morning before heading back to Maidstone to pick up Charlie who had had a wonderful time.
