Couldn't think of a better topic title.
Anyway today I went for a meal to celebrate my Grandmas 70th birthday. It was in Windsor and FOOK it was posh.
The actual area was huge as it's got a hotel there as well. There's a big Golf course, lots of tennis courts and it eve has is own Helicopter pad outside.
The actual building reminded me of the towers at Alton. With the same kinda architecture and statues/gardens ect.
The inside was just as nice, with lots of chandeliers, wooden wall panels and live music.
We had a big table by the window overlooking the Thames.
The building has a lot of history behind it. Around 200 films have been shot there. Some of you may recognise it from from films such as St Trinians, The Rocky Horror Show, Half a Sixpence (staring Tommy Steele), Murder by Death (starring Peter Sellers) and Hammer House Productions have done alot there. The most famous is that it was where Dracula was filmed.
I just have to say as well. Our waiter was a Spanish woman and was fookin' fit as.
Anyway onto some pics.
Part of the building from the outside with the fountain:
Another shot from further round:
They had lots of Statues:
Inside the entrance:
Starter - Ham with lettuce/salad stuff
Main course - Sunday Carvery (pic taken after I had eaten some of the meat):
Dessert - Baked Custard Tart with Honeycomb ice cream.
The food was AMAZING! We also got a small thing of soup as part of the starter which was delicious as well.
I have loads more pictures but I only picked a few so I didn't bore you. It's one of those places where pictures can't show how good it looks. Everyone was turning up in Jaguars with personalised numberplates and stuff.
Which reminds me. I took this image because I though Neal would like it.
