Dinner parties, are they not quintessential 1970s? Still have the Good Food Guide Dinner Party Book, 1971.
Not prawn cocktail and crepes suzette, then? What did we have in between?

Oh Mateus rose! And you could make the funny shaped bottles into a lamp afterwards. How about Leibfraumilch (shudder)?
Thanks RE. I only have 20 pieces so the set is even more incomplete than I thought.

We had a couple of days in a hotel near Loweswater (Lake district) 3 or 4 years ago. The menu was from the 70s - egg mayonnaise and Florida cocktail were two of the three starters, and trout with almonds was a main course - very nostalgic.
