Roman Lunch

We had a trip on the North Island again today, and stopped off for lunch at Fishbourne Roman Palace. We didn't view the remains of the palace as we'd been before - worth a visit if you haven't been though. I had the Roman Platter which consisted of two large slices of olive bread, a good dollop of hummous, plenty of black olives, lots of feta cheese and some salad. Delicious, and washed down with cups of tea from the generous 'pot of tea for one'. The teenager had a cheese and tomato panini which I was assured was also delicious.

 

The view from the café was pleasant, looking onto a turfed area, with a couple of hillocks, several oak trees, and a small pavilion. It looked as though some archaeology was happening on one of the hillocks. There was a horse in the distance and lots of trees just changing into their autumn colours. I think that we'll stop off there regularly!
