A wonderful food day again. The Scottish Highlands and Islands are definitely a good place for low carbers. We are staying at the mo in a very small ( 6room) hotel in Tobermory run by a husband and wife team. She has won awards and AA rosettes for her cooking and the food has been lovely. She has taken so much trouble to adapt her menus to my requirements without batting an eyelid.
NE1 Smoked haddock and poached eggs perfectly cooked. CWC ( without batting an eye)
NE2 small pack almonds and around 20g of 100% choc after a long wet walk - feeling cold and hungry.
NE3 so many lovely things: pre dinner gin and soda with appetisers of smoked salmon roulade and haloumi ( Mr C given a lovely looking filo pastry parcel containing haggis and mushrooms)
Pre dinner roast red pepper veloute with cream ( wouldn’t usually have this but it was served in a tiny cup and was completely delicious )
Starter: she made a special off menu trio of salmon starter with caviar for me.
Main course : one of the best steaks I’ve ever had with creamed leeks, buttered broccoli and green beans. ( Mr C’s beans came in a carrot ring which she omitted for me). He had a wonderful tasting sherry and mushrooms sauce with his steak but when I tried it, it did taste quite sweet.
Lovely cheeseboard for me. Wonderful looking ( and sounding g) cremebrulee for him
Will be very sorry to leave tomorrow.
