May Social Evening, Fat Cat Pub

Share food and drink May social evening, early on

The first Tuesday of the month is our social evening at the Fat Cat pub, Spring Road Ipswich. The Fat Cat is a lovely friendly real ale pub that supplies plates, knives and forks in the week to its customers. We shared a lovely meal of all kinds of dishes from the fabulous Prawn Jambalaya cooked by Jon and Debbie to Joanne’s “Hungry Gap Greens” pasta, not to mention samples of roast pork from the Acorn Antic pig club.

Lots of people came along this month, which was lovely, we needed three tables at one point of the evening! As usual a few of us were there until closing time…!

Tom, Kirsty and Kate at the bar later on
