Princely fare is fair for forests














Respect to HRH Prince Charles. Not only is he busy using his 'pulling power' to save the rainforests but he is making sure his guests do their bit. Only sustainably-sourced palm oil in the Sainsbury's biscuits (clearly clear out of Duchy Originals), according to the notices in little silver card holders beside the plates. Good.

Have to hand it to HRH Organic champion - the food was delicious. Several guests, stand up do, but not a cold, miniscule, over-worked canope in sight. Just delectable, piping-hot individual cottage pies followed by warm apple crumble and cream. It was, I admit, an up-market crumble scattered over finely chopped spiced apple chunks, rather than the usual squadgy-sitting-in-the-oven-sunday-lunch version. Magog Muffins approved.
