Visitors are in for a festive treat this week as the Christmas menu is served at Hull Royal Infirmary and Castle Hill Hospital.

Costing £7.95 for a three-course meal with mince pie, tea or coffee and a complimentary cracker with every main course, the Christmas menu will be available from the Kingston Restaurant at Hull Royal Infirmary and at Nightingales Restaurant next to the lecture theatre at Castle Hill Hospital.

The starter is cream of tomato and chive soup, served with a crusty roll.

There is a choice of three main courses – oven roasted turkey with cranberry sauce, sausage stuffing, chipolatas and bacon roll; pot roasted beef and Yorkshire pudding and parsnip and chestnut loaf, topped with cherry tomatoes. All main courses are served with glazed carrots, parsnips and Brussels sprots alongside roast and creamed potatoes.

Dessert is either traditional Christmas pudding with brandy sauce or port trifle.

Courses are individually priced for those who do not wish the full three courses and the Christmas menu will be available on December 12, 13 and 14.

A range of festive sandwiches will also be on sale at all outlets up until Christmas.
