This week we've had some super transatlantic guests dining with us...The USA Diving Team nonetheless!
These elite athletes dropped in on Wednesday evening for a true taste of Yorkshire – We can report that the Stacey Bank Farm braised beef brisket, root vegetables, glazed pearl onions followed up with Yorkshire Rhubarb crumble went down rather well and were firm favs from the menu!
The US Diving Team visited Sheffield for a pre-Games training camp at Ponds Forge before competing for places at the London 2012 Olympics at The FINA World Championships next week in our capital city.
12-14 of the athletes who dined with us will be selected for the actual US Diving Team – so it's more than likely there will be medallists in the group that came to Silversmiths.
We're happy to report that Silversmiths were the only restaurant the team dined in during their stay in Sheffield... So we're super happy to be sending them on their way with fabulous Yorkshire fuel to boost them on their way to success!
We're particularly proud of the team pic in Silversmiths... It was fabulous to meet you all and we wish you lots of luck next week at FINA and the best of Yorkshire luck for the Olympics!
