We ordered the steak because of the chalkboard promise of fresh salad or veggies.
Two with mushroom sauce, two without. Two with salad, two with veggies.
Two well done, two-medium rare.
Two ginger beers, a white wine, a schooner of VB and forty minutes later, four apparently identical plates arrived, laden with steak, canned vegetables and chips floating in a sea of brown.
As the first hovered over the spot occupied by Jo, she inquired:
"Is that the medium rare?"
There was an almost imperceptable delay, as though time had stood still for a mere nano-second.
A voice from behind the plates replied:
"It's the steak."

Wow- I actually was convinced you had put some chips into your fish pond, and were going to say you made fish and chips for dinner. That green looks more like pond-weed than I care to imagine. For that matter, the steak looks more like the mucky surface of pond water. Even after I had read your blog it was still a stretch to match the pic with what it was supposed to be.
That was the S part of J&S.
Well I know it was a BIT of a cryptic pic, but the rest of it was out of focus, and .... well, at least you did work it out.
The mushroom sauce is the giveaway I think.
P
either way, it sure looks appertising! YUM
