Beautiful wedding and Cafe Maitreya

My brother, Robert got married on Saturday to Alice - it was a very, very beautiful and special service and reception in Bristol.

It comes on top of news that Robert's cafe - CafĂ© Maitreya - was named the Observer Food magazine’s vegetarian restaurant of the year. This was despite stiff competition from bigger and wealthier restaurants in flashier places. The award comes after winning the Vegetarian Society’s top award the last two years!!

The cafes menu is changing all the time but at the moment you’re likely to see interesting things with nettle, wild garlic and Wye Valley asparagus. For the full menu, please go to our web site:

And talking of nettles, I had my first taste of nettle soup last week - not at the cafe but madewith Bread Street nettles - and very delicious it was - infact I'm all in faviour of supporting the National Be Nice to Nettles Week which will take place between the 16th and 27th May 2007!
