July 2014	New menu published at Thai Lanna Chasewater including a revised wine menu. Since the last menu publication there has been a VAT increase, two Excise Duty increases, significant increases in some wholsale food costs (especially prawns and fish) and major increases in gas and electricity. Price increases were unavoidable, but we have kept them to a minimum. Some dishes have only increased by 5p!
