That said, I suspect that Hellenic Republic actually offers better value for money - I love it too. :-)<br /><br />Hi Maria! Perhaps they ran out of sorbet - I don't think it's part of their usual menu and there were 14 of us to share it around!Cindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07147906610629741961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33131521.post-4765142833640266012009-06-30T23:35:24.166+10:002009-06-30T23:35:24.166+10:00I've been keen to try Press Club so it's i...I've been keen to try Press Club so it's interesting to read your comments.

Perhaps he just needs to do vegan meals more often and expand his idea of vegan food.<br /><br />And I too laugh at some of the odd things he says on MChef.xhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16888982130221268208noreply@blogger.com
