We went for the three course set menu with a glass of champagne and a bottle of white wine. The restaurant is traditional old school glamour to match the hotel. Quilted red chairs with tartan cushions, huge displays of flowers and a brilliant waiter service, everyone was lovely and we were made to feel very special even though we went for the value options.
One of my favourite things were the mini courses in between the main menu. We started with a thimble full of celeriac and fennel soup, this was followed by our main starter of chicken livers and mango puree.
We then went for the pork belly, it was almost too beautiful to eat. The portions were a good size and so rich you wouldn't need anymore.
To cleanse our palette we were treated to a lemon mousse with a posh lemon curd at the bottom.
This was followed with our desserts, I went for poached rhubarb and vanilla custard, Claire went for the chocolate mille-feuille. All were really yummy!
To finish we were given petit fours - a chocolate truffle, jellied sweet, a vanilla sponge, apple tart and my favourite, a macaroon. I would really recommend this place for total luxury and a real treat.
