In celebration of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's upcoming wedding, one London restaurant has taken the liberty of creating its very own royal wedding menu. Though its not clear what will actually be served at the couple's wedding this coming May, The Terrace Restaurants and Tea Rooms has done some of the guesswork.
Designed as a sort of "wedding gift" to Markle and the prince, The Terrace Restaurants and Tea Rooms has created its very own royal wedding menu. The menu will be served at each of the restaurant's three venues and diners will be able to choose from three main courses. One entree option is a traditional meat dish from Botswana called Seswaa, which is meant as a nod to the place where Meghan's engagement ring is sourced from. The other two options are turkey meatloaf (which Meghan says reminds her of home) and roast chicken (which is the meal Harry cooked on the night of the couple's engagement. The rest of the menu is made up of dishes like poutine, banana loaf, and malva pudding.
