Where else could you dine on delicious fine food and know that you had burnt it off before leaving the restaurant?

Not every night out starts with exercise but this did.  As my balance isn’t the best ( read pants!) I wibbled my way through stretches, abs, core and some Pilates!

Thankfully Chef Jak O’Donnell decided that we’d had enough and it was time to see what the Miele ovens could do.

If you are lucky enough to go to the second night, you are in for a treat.  Check out here for info on the Edinburgh date.

 

I was very impressed with the Miele steam oven.  Certainly never thought about steaming meat and after tonight I will!  It seemed easy to use, as well as to clean afterwards.

 

Thank you to Chef Jak O’Donnell for the delicious food and cooking tips and to Miele for the experience.
