Sunday Roast at the Bistrotheque celebrating What Would Julia Do...

Those lovely people at the Bistrotheque laid on a fabulous feast to celebrate the launch of photographer Rebecca Thomas' book What Would Julia Do. It's a little self published tome with yours truly at the core of it's subject matter. After last months launch we carried on just a little longer...
On the menu a selection of delicious salads washed down with copious amounts of Bloody Mary's, mains of juicy roasted and marinaded chicken, dessert chocolate mousse, orange curd and candied orange along with passion fruit and fennel seed mess.

The star of the show... the dog I mean, Barney 'Bubbles' La Clar
