Charlotte Church to buy restaurant

Charlotte Church, the "voice of an angel" and accomplished classical singer, is entering the restaurant business. She has recently made an offer for a restaurant known as the Old Post Office in St. Fagans, outside Cardiff, Wales, where she is originally from. Despite the name, the Old Post Office is a fine dining restaurant that is up-to-date on modern trends. Ms. Church has often admitted to a preference for junk foods, that that does not seem to have put her off the cuisine of the restaurant, whose menu features dishes such as "Terrine of ham hock & foie gras and pear with gazpacho," "Roast fillet of dorade on olive oil creamed potato with a wild mushroom cappuccino" and, for dessert, "Vanilla and peppercorn parfait." The trend of using flavored foams is evident in the kitchen with their "wild mushroom cappuccino" side.

The offer was accepted and the restaurant sale is expected to go through within the next month.
