Scones with smoked salmon & sour cream
Who says you have to pay for good quality posh nosh?!! Last Sunday I had a good friend over for a ‘stitching day’. We went out first, for a cuppa and scones, at the Peninsula Gardens Tearooms down by the river – unfortunately a bit disappointing compared to usual, as they have changed hands and the serving sizes/quality of scones had gone downhill. Such a shame, as I love to take visitors to this tranquil, pretty spot by the river. I hope it was just a one-off under-par performance.
Back home at my place, we had an afternoon tea of King Island cheddar, a French blue version of Labuche d’Affinois, that I purchased the week before at The Cheese Barrel in the Swan Valley.
I am pretty pleased with this cheese platter – you can make them look just as great at home, as what you pay squillions of dollars for! (and yes, that is champagne in that glass…..a bit of embroidery and lacemaking, a BBC mini series, food and bubbly – a perfect Sunday!)
Happy Fooding!
