631. Welsh Cawl

For my dad’s birthday we went to a Welsh/Italian/Spanish restaurant. They literally have three separate menus for each of the cuisines, which is weird, but actually great as you can have a total mix for your meal. For my starter I picked this cawl, which is a Welsh soup, then I had a Spanish chicken and ham dish for my main course, and an Italian tiramisu for dessert. I got told off by the waiter when I ordered this as I pronounced it like call, but you are actually supposed to say it cowl, like the type of neckline, or like Simon. It’s a lamb broth with big chunky vegetables, and it was served with a piece of caerphilly cheese on the side. I chopped my cheese up and mixed it into the soup which was awesome and I think is an idea I’m going to have to take on to all kinds of future soups I have in my life.
