Absence Makes...The List Grow Longer!

HUGE APOLOGIES for the distinct lack of Salvation blog action; I had the tiniest amount of time off mid-August to recover from some pretty major ear surgery, and I've been chasing my tail ever since!  Anyway, we return, and what better way to start than with this week's menu:

Hearty Mushroom and Pearl Barley Soup £4.50

Pork and Chorizo Meat Balls
These heavenly patties pack a punch with a healthy pinch of cayenne and smoked paprika.

We had something of an 'about-turn' with the menu this week; here at Salvation HQ we're getting ridiculously excited about the impending arrival of our woodburner - guaranteed toastiness to see us through the winter months.  We've almost been willing for cold weather, and with that in mind, I was planning on launching the new Autumn menu....but then, HELLO SUNSHINE!!  It's practically tropical 'round here at the mo, so you're just going to have to wait a little longer for that Punjabi Pie.....
