Here at the BMI Alexandra in Manchester they have teamed up with a local chef Paul Heathcote, and it seems he really has influenced the food. The meat specials at lunch and dinner are very "french" style and really VERY good. Last night, I fell with such vigour on the lovely little pink noisettes of lamb that I forgot to get a photo! They also do lots of veg alternatives with spinach, mushrooms etc so good for building up strength again.
You can get this lovely fruit salad with every meal:
On Monday night I had this tray for my main meal:
The salad was definitely not something you'd want on chemo, blue cheese and perfectly ripe pear, but I loved it, served with rocket and finely sliced red cabbage. The main dinner was a meltingly soft, slow roasted duck-leg with creamed cabbage and mash.
I am eating some meat this week because I have been told that meat proteins support healing better than non-meat sources.
