This week your Soup Captain and his keen crew abandoned ship and spent the night in Manchester with J& the lovely Gem watching a gig by Emily Barker in a crowded back room of a quaint pub- The Castle Hotel. We thought it was raining, but it turned out that it was condensed sweat dripping down on us - YUK!!
The gig was superb as was the fried African plantain we had at a ( I cannot truly call it a restaurant) bar in the cellar of a shop. The food and African beer was out of this world.
Real soup story next week...................
Each week I make a vegetarian soup for my wife Sharon and Mavis and Owen my Octogenarian in-laws. The ingredients of each soup depends on what's in the shops, my garden or the kitchen cupboard at the time! Mave and Owen have to try and guess the ingredients and Mave always asks, "Has it got a name?" So each week I will try and post details of the soup and a comment from Sharon, Mave and Owen. ENJOY!
