I didn’t do a review of this visit, but still wanted to share the pictures!
We had dinner on 24 juli 2021.

Mellow flavours unless you hit the mustard seeds or the pickled onion. Summery taste.

Beautiful fresh. With cucumber and red chillies and white sesame seeds and some dots of jalapeno mayo

Jalapeno mayo cutting nicely through. Nice texture

Terragon breadcrumbs. Quite al dente peas. Pleasant combination with interesting hints of the yoghurt and mushrooms to complement the meaty monkfish.

Tiny bit of heat from the sambal. Would have liked more. Fennel works nice with the fish. Nothing overpowered, which is always nice. Tomato broth brought a subtle harmony to the dish.

Nice 2 bits of venison. Cherry jelly and a lovely jus. But honestly, this is way too small. We are not in the eighties anymore where tiny portions were the trend.

Too much elderflower (soapy). Sharp lemon. Very sharp citrus gel. No harmony in the dish. Could have been a nice dessert with a few tweaks.
