 It was advertized as :

Garlic Loaf

Our locally baked Homestyle loaf smothered in our delicious freshly made Garlic butter

Half: $8 . . . .  Full: $14

So being wise (for once) we asked how big the loaf would be and then decided a half one would do just nicely!!  Just as well as you casn see this was a rather large loaf indeed.
It came in good time and was hot throughout.
Initial recations were along the lines of 'not another DE-constructed loaf' however we soon found out that the additional garlic butter was there for a reason.  The loaf was cut down only so far (about halfway) so after we cut a slice off (4 in total) we were able to add the rest of the butter to the regions where the chef's butter failed to drain down to - making it a deliciously flavoured bread - especially as seeing it was still hot enough to actually melt the butter into the bread texture.   A half loaf is more then enough for two people - especially if you want to eat a proper meal afterwards!!!  Those lucky enough to get the cheese/bacon topping slice had an additional flavor to enjoy.

The wooden board and paper napkin detracted from the presentation.  Oh and I have to say - the "Bread-knife" was of superb quality!!  Best I have seen in a long time - and that is saying something!! *smiles*

To enjoy this - use above details and yes - one has to book or miss out on a table - or wait a long time!
