A Royal Wedding Banquet awaits our guests

With a royal wedding banquet scheduled for this coming Friday we have planned a unique menu for our distinguished guests. After all they are flying in from all over the world to celebrate the grand occasion in Kerrouet. We have promised them a memorable evening of gourmet cuisine and a few surprises too!
A car loaded with English Royal Memorabilia is already on it's way to France (thank you Neil & Lydia!).

We will kick off our evening with some Kerrouet Royale Cocktails because they were invented in the royale "chimney house" of Kerrouet (Ker Rouet = Kings House/Village in Briton!) by our very own selves! You can find how to make it here: http://www.cocktail.uk.com/Cocktail-Recipe/Kerrouet-Royale.htm

Research has indicated that Prince William enjoys his Gaelic stakes and so our chef will ensure the best possible gaelic sauce on the night. This is not as easy as it sounds in France given the impossibility of getting fresh cream but I hear we have a special supply coming in direct from Jersey! Thank you John! We know that Prince William has chosen a traditional fruit cake for his wedding cake. We had planned to bake a Charlotte Royal for dessert as it is fruit cake based and originally named for Queen Charlotte, wife of George III. However given the fact that we have lots of rhubarb growing in the garden and Rhubarb is an English popular dish, I am sure our guests will not object when presented with this dessert dish on Friday the 29th!

The full menu is as follows:

Kerrouet Royale Cocktails

Lobster bisque

Granité Danoise

Rôti de Boeuf à la sauce Gaélique

Kerrouet Royal Rhubard Crumble
