Our
first stop this morning, yet another sunny day, was to the York Castle Museum. This was quite interesting, and after leaving
we climbed up to Clifford’s Tower.
We
spent some time wandering the shops, and we called in at the Shambles Market
where I found a lovely handbag and scarf.
It was then time for Sunday roast at the Hole in the Wall pub, which was
very nice indeed.
The
afternoon was spent at the Museum of Yorkshire, before we headed to Pairings
restaurant for our wine and food pairing experience. We booked this from home before leaving, and
I highly recommend it. We were served
Serrano ham with a glass of white, triple-cream Delice de Bourgogne with another
glass of white, then Manchego cheese and a pork pie with a glass of red, some
bresaolo and smoked cheese with another red, and the final course was a salted
caramel brownie that was delicious with a red dessert wine.
This
was a wonderful eating and drinking experience and was fitting for our last
night in York.
