Christmas Eve - La Buvette






We had a bit of an unusual Christmas Eve this year. Myself and Adrian, Mum and dad, Emily and Nick all went out to La Buvette (A french restaurant in Richmond). It was quite a posh place so evening wear was required. Emily and Nick were kind enough to have bought me a really nice sleevless dress a couple of weeks before in a little one off shop called Luella's Boutique so I was all kitted out for the evening. I couldnt help but splash the cash a bit and buy some bright pink shoes and a handbag to go with my dress.

I think just about everyone ordered the 'steak onglet'. And this was the most amazing steak I have ever eaten in my entire life. It was so rare it was practically mooing at me from the plate but it was absolutely delicious with a garlic sauce on top. We had a really lovely aperatif (sp??!!?) before hand and then got onto the wine. Oh, then an ameretto, oooo and then a few more if memory serves me rightly. Good evening was had by all, a very nice way to see in Christmas:)
