Restaurant 1861 at Cross Ash near Abergevenny right out in the boondocks, is well worth visitingOwners are Simon and wife Kate and celebrated their 1st year in business along with their 1 year old daughters birthday last Sunday .To celebrate the occassion I dug out my acrylic paints, burnt the midnight oil and created a 14 x 18 framed painting of the establishment, which we hope to see on display on our next visit.
Simon was the head chef, and Kate the wedding co ordinator at one of the venues that our son Bob does the wedding photography, as a result they have become good friends.Simon trained under the Roux Bros and Heston Bluemental so the food is quite outstanding, and by London standards a give away.
Thought you might like to see what one can do with acrylics.
