My brother and I spent the evening at Moon & Sixpence tonight. I had a good time (which at that pub is a foregone conclusion) talking about work, our upcoming travels, politics, life, the universe and everything. I’m sure that I’ve never reviewed the food at Moon & Sixpence, but since my first visit there several weeks ago I’ve had several things on the menu and I’ve not yet been disappointed.
Tonight I had the Cornish Pasty (ground beef, potatoes, carrots and peas, wrapped in a flakey pastry and served with gravy), which was fantastic. This is something I’ve been wanting to try since I’ll be visiting the Cornwall region of England in a few months, where this dish is from. I highly recommend it.
In past visits I’ve had the fish & chips (which are really good, better than most in town), the cottage pie (similar ingredients to the pasty; ground beef, carrots, peas, with mashed potatoes on top, and very very good) and a side dish called Welsh Rarebit (cheese mixed with beer and seasonings put on toasted bread and baked), which is super delicious. Who says British foods are bland? 🙂
I nearly got the bangers and mash, that’ll have to be the next vist. Basically, I’ve not had a bad meal at Moon & Sixpence, nor a bad experience (or a bad beer, heh).
Man, after writing about all the delicious foods, I’m hungry again. Shucks!

The cottage pie and Welsh Rarebit sounds tasty. When are you and Kelly gonna drag us out there? 😀
Hehe, very soon. And they are both very tasty. We’ll have to plan something here soon, perhaps in the next week or two (once you’re over your slight case of death).
I’m in the last stages of it, I think. I’m not feeling totally miserable anymore, but the cough and stuffed up nose are still there. Should be back to 100% in a day or two. The real bitch of it was not being able to ski today – I have a full-day pass to Ski Bowl (gift from the in-laws) that expires April 1st…maybe I can get out of work on Friday…
