Escaping the Royal Wedding V: Cardiff Promise

I had to try local cuisine, but to be honest was kind of a difficult task to find a Welsh cuisine restaurants, I even tried Google the places but some of them were closed and didn’t exist. Until I read a review of a local pub in the city centre called “The Promise Land” serving local cuisine, entertainment, music, and even Welsh hospitality.

The Place

I went for the Welsh cheese platter, a selection of Perl Las, Black Bomber, Caws y Craig, Perl Wen, with crackers, biscuits and chutney. The cheeses are supply from the local independent store Deli a GoGo. As a main I tried the Welsh Faggots which is meat off cuts especially pork, some herbs, and offal.

Faggots

 Cheese Plate

The food was really good, and you can’t go more local than having faggots, the cheese plate was amazing, well I love cheese so I might be a little bias.

The place

Cheese reminds me the Seinfeld episode “The Foundation”.

George: I tell you, Jerry, I'm feeling something. Something I haven't felt in a long time.
Jerry: Pride?
George: No. Autonomy, complete and total autonomy.
Jerry: Well, you're your own boss now.
George: I wanna go to a tractor pull.
Jerry: Go ahead.
George: I am staying out all night!
Jerry: Who's stopping you?
George: I wanna bite into a big hunk of cheese, just bite into it like it's an apple.
Jerry: Whatever.
