Re-visiting this restaurant was a superb choice to start this season of Restaurant Week. Our evening was filled with excellent, friendly service and brilliant food, while a live band played smooth jazz suiting everyone’s taste.
With their new menu being launched we were treated with new selections for our visit.
For starters we shared a Delicate Seafood Roulade and Chicken Liver Rillettes
The Rillettes (rillettes - French word for a meat spread), which was made from chicken livers and thighs and pan seared, was creamy and very tasty. This was topped with caramelized onions which perfectly complemented the richness of the rillettes and accompanied by caramelized figs and toasted bread.
The Roulade, which was wrapped in poached zucchini strips, was equally tasty and delicious. This was topped with some caviar and a dash of seafood bisque and chili oil. All flavours combining to perfectly to enhance the seafood experience.
For mains we had their Lamb Shoulder and the Line fish.
The lamb shoulder, having been braised and rolled with onion and garlic was tender and soft, and perfectly paired with a thyme jus lusciously lathered over it. This was served with a wild mushroom risotto, topped with parmesan chips, and could easily have been a meal on its own. Freshly prepared, and packed with flavour, with pockets of parmesan bursting though.
The line fish was equally well prepared, being firm and juicy it was covered with a beautifully delicate baby prawn Normandy sauce and served on top of pea and feta couscous. This was served with roasted green beans / sugar snaps and a dash of pea puree.
For deserts we shared their Tipsy Tiramisu Twist and Pina Colada Panna Cotta.
The tiramisu which consisted of a light combination of coffee and Kahlua was served with a divine Frangelico ice cream served on top of shortbread crumble, fresh mint, and grapes.
The panna cotta, moulded on pineapple jelly, was topped with a strawberry and apple compote and served with mango puree and lime curd, along with homemade nougat ice cream.
Both deserts were a perfect end to our meal, serving some lite sweetness and lots of flavour.
All the staff, including the waiters and all managers on duty ensured that all the patrons evening was perfection.

What a great experience. I ordered the chicken liver rillettes, pork medallions and the tipsy tiramasu. The first two courses was amazing and the wine it was paired with took the taste to another level. The tiramasu was great however the ice cream did not really take the dish to a different level so I did not enjoy ...

What a great experience. I ordered the chicken liver rillettes, pork medallions and the tipsy tiramasu. The first two courses was amazing and the wine it was paired with took the taste to another level. The tiramasu was great however the ice cream did not really take the dish to a different level so I did not enjoy everything in the plate.

My husband ordered the seafood roulade, lamb shoulder and the Pana Cota. He was fairly happy with the starters however did say that if it was less minced, the taste would have been even better.. his lamb shoulder was a generous portion however some of the thicker cuts were dry. After telling the waiter who conveyed the message to the chef, he was given thinner slices afterwards and the chef wanted to know whether that's a better way to serve it which we appreciated cause it's clear that they value customer feedback. The Pana Cota is definitely something I'd order next time I go there as it was just an explosion of flavors.
Overall the night was fab
