Lamb Kidney and Smoked Pancetta Salad €6.50
in a creamy brandy sauce
Salmon and Tiger Prawn Mousse €6.95
infused with fresh herbs, chilli and chive vinaigrette
These were our starters. The mousse was excellent but the Kidney and Pancetta was certainly different and very very good – I really loved that sauce.
Pan-fried Fillet of Halibut €23.95
with savoury risotto, creamy shellfish sauce
This was the main course. Each plate had two big chunks of fresh halibut, a sparingly used sauce, and was served with vegetables and potatoes, giving quite a substantial course. The Risotto wasn't bad though a bit too strongly flavoured, taking away somewhat from the fish. I’d have preferred something like Ratatouille or some other tomato based accompaniment.
No room for dessert but we enjoyed our coffees. Service was very friendly, discreet and excellent all through.
