....it's starting to get interesting

Well there is beer in the fermenters, OK not quite beer yet as the little yeast cells need to get to work...

(sssshhhh - don't tell every body but we found some Willamette hops - yup, we did a Woolpacker!!)

....but somebody rumoured there's a bank holiday coming. Better prep up some food then.

..but talking about food, we found an excellent web site yesterday all about Cumbrian Food - it tends to focus only on the big names over Ambleside and Windermere way, but it's nice to see somebody pulling together a generic Cumbrian quality food web site.
Take a look - - http://www.artisan-food.com/

Baa sign


Last year we painted a sign to go over the bar door. During the winter it went missing - somebody must have liked it.


Anyway, we've got a new one made - the wonders on modern computers eh - one day it was a JPEG, the next it was like you see!!

Thanks for the plug Dave.

The restaurant reviews are a pretty small part of the site, although they are read by a lot of our visitors.

Our main focus is on local producers and where you can get their produce. As we are both foodies, we also have a strong emphasis on how to cook etc., we try to write about the good local chefs too and a lot of the local chefs visit the site regularly.

If anybody has a special place to eat, that uses local produce and provides good quality food, let us know. We both love the Western side of Cumbria, but probably don't visit it enough, we can check out any places recommended. If you know of good producers that we should cover, also, please let us know. We won't let a few mountains get in the way!
