beef.jpgRoast in Borough market is undoubtedly one of the best places in London for a big fat comfort inducing roast. This Sunday just gone we all bundled in for a well deserved long, lazy lunch.
Crab cakes couldn't be refused as a starter so we all decided to be rather unadventurous and have the same. Mains were perfectly cooked pork belly with apple sauce, cabbage and amazing roast potatoes. The beef was rather faultless too, medium rare as it said on the menu though contrary to what seemed to be the rules we were informed it could be cooked further if necessary.
All this was washed down with a beautiful English sparkling wine (Chapel Down 2004 Pinot Reserve). A perfect substitute for Champagne if not better by my standards. It's lighter and lacks the overly dry aftertaste that sometimes comes about after your second glass of something like Laurent Perrier. Its also lighter on the wallet at £45.
Perfect puddings followed with chocolate pots, vanilla crisps and cheese boards.
Our meal lasted about 3 hours. Perfect sunday laziness.
