Strictly Fine Dining: June 2012
http://strictlyfinedining.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html
Wednesday, 13 June 2012. Brunch Series Dish 3: Poached Lobster Benny, Waffle, Plum Tomato Jam, Gruyere, Chive Hollandaise. Here is a dish just recently launched onto our brunch menu. We use 100% Oceanwise lobster from Fabian Bates at Sing Sing lobster. This is a really nice balance of sweet tart tomato jam and rich gruyere cheese which sitting on the waffle absorbs all the released moisture. Its a nice twist on the classic eggs benedict and has gone down very well with our guests. Posted by Craig Dryhurst.

Strictly Fine Dining: February 2010
http://strictlyfinedining.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Monday, 22 February 2010. Early last Monday fire severely damaged the kitchens at Mugaritz, the world-famous restaurant in Spain's Basque Country. Luckily, no-one was hurt. For the management and staff of Mugaritz, the destruction of their workplace was a tragedy. But for three other young people, this was also a calamity. Many of you will be familiar with John Sconzo of Docsconz - The Blog. Posted by Craig Dryhurst. Tuesday, 9 February 2010. Febuary 9th du jour menu. Scallop and rosemary brochette.

So I took a really early Fat Duck recipe for carrot toffe and made a caramel sauce, then took Mr. Kellars carrot cake and tweaked it a little to suit my needs, added a few orange segments and some candied zest. A little quinelle of Grand Marnier ice cream and some peanut croquant later made this. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
