On
Our starters were a selection of cold dishes such as humous, stuffed vine leaves, cracked wheat salad with
peppers, parsley, spring onions and tomatoes-a really lovely variety of dips
all accompanied by warm homemade flat bread.
As there were so many people there, the pace of the lunch was
leisurely for us, unlike the staff, who were kept busy
throughout and kept calm and collected on the outside!
The main courses were a choice of either chicken chunks or lamb
chunks, cooked over charcoal with rice or chips and salad. Alternatively, vegetarian
moussaka was offered.
The accompanying chilli and garlic sauces were delicious and cheeks
began to glow-either from the chilli or the glasses of wine which many chose to
have with their lunch.
We will certainly be returning to Samdan
in 2009 and I know that Forum members had yet another super social event in the
run up to the darker winter days ahead.
