Garden group October 2017 meeting

Dear Gardeners

For our October outing we have again made the decision to change the date in order to attend an event we’re sure you won’t want to miss !

The outing will be on 

Sunday 8th October 2017

and the event is the annual 

FOIRE AUX PLANTES RARES 

held in the picturesque hilltop village of Ordan-Larroque. 

There is always a large and interesting variety of plants and a lively atmosphere.

We hope you will all join us there at  (13h)  one o’clock — 

BRING A PICNIC 

—  we will meet in the car park below the village.

For those who don’t fancy the walk up to the village from the car park, there is a shuttle bus to take the strain !

Dear Ladies - 
It feels as if summer has flown by! Here we are already in early autumn and it is time to invite you to our lunch on 
Tuesday the 10th of October 2017. 
This month, we are going back to the three-star hotel and restaurant Chateau de Buros, in Escalans, just north of Gabarret. 

Angélique de Wit, the chef of Chateau de Buros, has once again created a mouth-watering menu for us:

Velouté de Tomate, Crème fraîche au Basilic

Tomato soup with Crème fraîche and Basil

Parmentier de Canard et ses Légumes de saison

Shepherd’s Pie with Duck and Vegetables in season

Mackerel fillet with Leeks and a Brunoise (finely diced Potatoes fried in butter)

Mousse de Fruits de saison avec son Crumble

Mixture of seasonal Fruit and Crumble

The cost of the menu is 18 euro, which includes the wine but not the coffee/tea.

Deadline for bookings is the 2nd of October so please submit your booking form as soon as possible with your choice of main course. As usual, we will be sending out a list of those who have booked just before that date. If you have any problems with the Booking Form please email Margaretha at <lunchclubgascogne@gmail.com>

We would very much appreciate it if you could bring along your cheque made payable to Ladies Lunch Club de l'Armagnac for 18 euros (or cash) in an envelope with your name clearly marked. This speeds up the checking in process. Booking in will start at 12 o’clock. Please note that you may be charged if you cancel within 72 hours of the lunch.

Looking forward to seeing you all soon!

Kind Regards
The LLC Committee
