LA ROMANTICA - HIGH STREET

Date:  1 December 2009
Hosts:  Johan & Lida
Group:  18ppl (2 NEW MEMBERS  - welcome Dave and Bets :)

Our Christmas dinner was loads of fun!
Great choice of venue and good company!  I must admit I was a bit sceptic after hearing comments regarding their poor service, but we got excellent service from our waiter Jaco.  He was a great waiter (it can't possibly be easy looking after such a rowdy bunch) and a good sport, he even joined in when we started singing Christmas Carols :) 

Everyone's food was served at the same time...still warm :) The food was well presented and tasted as good as it looked!  Their fairly priced menu caters for all tastes and includes everything from Sushi and Seafood to Pasta, Pizza & Steak!

My sushi starter was deliscious and great value for money! Other starters incluced soup, livers, fried camembert and garlic snails...
Mains:  This was a problem for everyone as there were so many mouthwatering options!! Jack Daniels and Mushroom steak, Old Man Steak (still confused as to why it's called that lol), Creamy pasta, T- bones (very tender and juicy as were all the other steaks) and stuffed Chicken breasts.  My steak was slightly overdone, but hey I'm probably just picky :)  Everyone else raved about their food and I was amazed at how quiet our table became while eating....that's a sure sign that the food is great!

Thank you to Lida who organised small Christmas presents for all the guests - we really appreciate it!

I'm sure if I speak for everyone when I say we'll definitely be back for more!!!
