Although I went to eat lunch at The Summerhouse many weeks back, this beauty never left my mind. I must admit I’m not a huge dessert person but this - this light and refreshing palette cleanser won my heart.
The unassuming elderflower sorbet on a bed of mint jelly with edible flowers, yogurt and honeycomb bits and the fresh strawberries all in a mouthful transported me to the garden of Eden. What a work of art!
An incredibly beautiful space serving a symphony of flavours. My all star winner is the beef tenderloin on a bed of buttery mash and an awfully single yummy carrot accompanied by its leafy spinach friends. Cutting through the beef was an experience; It was easy, like a warm knife to butter. The beauty of its medium rareness and the tenderness of its flesh sat me down in silence for a good minute as if I was graced with the presence of Tchaikovsky. Paired with a glass of Shiraz from Leeuwin Estate, I’d dare say this is an orchestra reborn on a plate of robust and rich flavours.
