Yesterday (Thursday 9th August) we held a cheese and wine tasting in the lounge. Residents tried two red wines, two white wines and four cheeses. They then had to guess the country of origin for each.
We had great fun tasting everything and encouraging residents to try different types of cheeses - which all went down very well with everyone. Unfortunately we didn't do very well in guessing which countries they were from, but a good time was still had by all.
This type of activity is one that we are doing to try and encourage our residents to try different types of foods. We can then gauge what people like and look at adapting our menu to incorporate these ingredients. For example, people really liked the Manchego cheese which we could use in a Spanish Tortilla.
We shall hold future cheese and wine tasting as it was definitely a hit, so keep an eye on our Activities Wall (in the porch) for the date of the next one.
