Traditional Sunday Roast
There is nothing more traditionally British than a hearty roast dinner. Here in the west-country, in an area boasting bountiful landscapes and numerous local farms, roast dinners are sure to be made from only the freshest, local meats and vegetables.
The traditional Sunday Roast tends to be a family affair when a substantial joint of lamb with mint sauce, pork with apple sauce or beef with yorkshire puddings and horse raddish sauce is served "with all the trimmings" including roast potatoes and a variety of fresh vegetables.
The origins of this traditional meal date back to the days when the squire of the village would treat his serfs to a feast of roast oxon on the spit on a Sunday to reward them for their six days of hard labour in the week.
Traditional roast dinners are available throughout the city, and range in style and cost depending on the venue you chose - be that a luxurious hotel restaurant, or a traditional country pub.
