We went to a Yulefest dinner at the Blue Mountains Manor House and no, we didn’t eat kangaroo!
Our hosts, Annette and Colin, greeted us with a glass of mulled wine and we then moved into the warm dining room with its two open fires. The room and the tables had been decorated and you would think you were in England and it was Christmas.
The dinner was a fabulous four course meal. A smoked salmon entrée was followed by soup. Roast turkey, ham & veges was the main meal with dessert being Christmas pudding and glazed pear.
It’s really more of an event than just a dinner. Glenys played the piano all through dinner, and between courses Annette led the singing of Christmas carols. Santa arrived with his helper with all ages getting into the spirit and having pictures taken with him. Everyone got a gift!
We finished the night with a coffee and port before we ventured back into the cold.
