I don’t remember the specific names but my husband had pork with honey and red wine, I had cod with shrimp, our friends had pork cheeks and another type of pork dish without honey and red wine but I don’t know which one that was. Oh my goodness! Each dish was just perfect! I can say my cod dish was the most flavorful fish dish I have had in my life! Yummy! My husband and friends were so happy that we chose to eat at Mr .

All made for a very special last...
