Another excellent themed night based around fish. A good selection for each course catering for all tastes. The salmon main was particularly well received. Fortunately the desert choice moved away from the fish theme to more conventional treats like sticky toffee pudding. Very good value with a welcome drink,four courses and a beverage. Will be back for St Patrick's dinner.
