SUMMER is a distant memory!
The temperatures have plummeted and autumn is in the air.
Fancy a toasty roast dinner this weekend to warm up?
Yorkshire puddings filled with gravy, crispy roast potatoes and tender slices of meat that melt in the mouth – roast dinners have been a staple meal on Sundays for hundreds of years.
Whether it’s for lunch or evening meal, the traditional roast is a firm favourite.
As part of our Best of 2024 competition we asked readers and followers of the Wirral Globe to nominate their favourite place to enjoy the British classic.
