AD | Invite
I had the pleasure of dining at this hidden gem within the Green House Hotel courtesy of Dorset Digital Storytellers - South Coast Creators
An award winning 2 AA Rosette restaurant, where the food is unforgettable. The balance of flavours, the presentation, the menu options are exquisite. Andy Hilton and his team of chefs pour their passion into each dish and it shows in every single bite โจ๏ธ
We opted for -
Sticky Pressed Lamb Belly, Watermelon, Cranborne Feta, Garden Mint ๐
I absolutely loved this dish. A summery balance of flavours with a succulent, sticky lamb belly which was divine!
Gin Cured Mackerel, Sweet and Sour
Cucumber and Apple Salad, Dill and Buttermilk ๐
For Mains -
Chicken Kiev with Chive and Confit Garlic
Butter, Lemon and Herb Mash, Chicken and
Preserved Lemon Sauce ๐
Creedy Carver Duck Breast, Smoked Duck,
Orange and Cherry Croquette, Confit Leg, Chicory ๐ฆ
This was outstanding. I love duck and this was up there with one of my favourite duck dishes ever. It was smokey, sweet, the charred chicory was the perfect addition. I would probably order it again on my next visit because I can't stop thinking about it!
For Dessert -
Banoffee Tart, Peanut Praline, Banana Ice Cream
Baked Custard Cream Cheesecake, Stewed New Forest Strawberries, Strawberry Ripple Ice Cream
I highly recommend a visit here if you've not been before. It was a truly delightful experience and I really enjoyed thr food - I cannot wait to visit again!
