The Table Restaurant

<span style="font-size: large;">For the month of August The Table Restaurant in Portobello (a block away from Lock's Restaurant on the Canal) had a special offer of 30% off (excluding wine).  We had picked up a 30% off voucher in Coffee Society on Monday and immediately booked in for Saturday night.</span><br /><div><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-size: large;">We were celebrating our 12 yr wedding anniversary and as we were seated overlooking the canal I remarked how lovely the setting was for our special meal.</span></div><div><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-size: large;">We settled in to our seats and ordered a bottle of Cote du Rhone.  For starter we decided to split a beef carpaccio but found out that the last one had just been sold as we ordered.  We ordered duck pâté with fig chutney to share to start instead of the beef.</span></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiSwstdpLqlEW5cO7g41397kaXSsIfNbr1p5ZwhO3QPnWQ27RcGu3l8wNItxE3vyF169vYIq-H-pcKy9v1xTx1Ny529n2g8FM55uM4xFewHuYiV5D4ZiP4swrv3ptsCgTNAFFmFobvzrJXZ/s640/blogger-image--1699550972.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;
