We are now full swing into wild mushrooms season thanks to the rain of late and the continued sunshine. We have been buying these wild mushrooms from various suppliers of late as well, nice and fresh.

So this weekend, we will have a special menu which Ivan has been diligently working on the past couple of days. This is what is in the line up for the weekend if you like mushrooms...

**Potaje de Castañas y Garbanzos - Chic pea and chestnut stew.
**Ensalada con amanitas y granada - Salad with yema mushroom and pomegranate.
**Aluvias rojas con conejo y castañas - Red beans stew with rabbit and chestnuts.
**Aluvias blancas con codorniz y amanitas - White bean stew with quail and yema mushrooms.
**Carrillada ibérica estofada con boletos - Pork cheek stew with boletus mushrooms.
**Lenguado a la plancha con setas confitadas - Grilled dover sole with confit mushrooms.
**Arroz con boletos y espárragos trigueros - Risotto of asparagus & boletus mushrooms
**Revuelto de setas y espárragos trigueros - Scrambled egg with mushrooms & asparagus .

And of course we will have the usual line up of desserts on offer. Looking good for a food fest this weekend.
