I was always taught that ‘patience is a virtue’. As it turns out, a countdown of 110 days is no mean feat. 110 days of anticipation; 110 days of being continually plagued with social media posts that tease and reinforce your desire (for a dish). And now, I finally find myself standing here…
We first visted Ynyshir in August last year, but I didn’t post about it. It wasn’t because I didn’t love it; our lunch was so good that we immediately booked in for dinner that night. It was more that I loved it so much that I wanted to write an amazing post to match, but couldn’t seem to do it justice. But screw the vanity. Ynyshir is incredible and I want to shout about it.
I know I keep saying this, but it really has been a while since I’ve been blown away by a meal. Yes, I’ve had some very good meals, but I’ve not been able to stamp it with the word ‘outstanding’ for the past few months – until now. Something else remarkable happened too, this was my first time to Wales. Windy country roads, water cascading through valleys, lush green fields and sheep in the thousands you’d easily mistake my photographs for a dot to dot puzzle. To put it bluntly, I’m in love. Wales is the most beautiful place I have ever visited in the UK. Fact.
