The Sultan of Oman attended a State Banquet at Windsor Castle on 20th October. It was the first occasion for 40 odd years where the Head of State of Oman was so honoured. Perhaps it was just as turn or perhaps it was something to do with oil.
It was Andy Burnham’s first State Banquet and there were 160 guests
Wine was served but the focus was on specialist teas and of course the food.
The state banquet, served in St George’s Hall, offered guests:
- Croute of Scottish langoustine and Cornish crab with avocado, tomato consommé, and celery
- Pot roasted Windsor pheasant with spiced quince
- Stuffed cabbage and braised fondant potatoes in a Dijon mustard sauce
- Selection of assorted seasonal vegetables
- Individual baked Alaska with Balmoral plum and Windsor estate honey ice cream
