"For my main course, I had the Rump Steak, which was cooked rare as per the butcher's recommendation on the menu. This was truly the best steak I can recall. It had an incredible smokiness, as if it had been grilled over coal. I suspect they use a grill capable of reaching very high temperatures, providing a steak that's far superior to anything cooked at home. It was served with hearty chunky chips, a few sautéed green beans, some unsweetened arugula, and watercress, accompanied by a delicious herb butter. I didn't taste my companion's hake fillet dish, but it looked wonderful. It featured crispy skin and a lemon-butter emulsion with fresh mint, along with pan-roasted cucumber. For dessert, I ordered the dark chocolate fondant, which was beautifully executed with a gooey center. It was topped with a crispy mix of nuts and crushed pralines, adding a delightful crunch. My companion had the crème brûlée with fresh berries. The rich custard was sprinkled with some celestial flakes beneath the caramel top, which was caramelized to a rather dark shade. Personally, I prefer the complexity of a dark caramel that possesses a slightly bitter edge. We enjoyed a bottle of rosé Grenache, which was excellent and fruity. I also ordered a glass of the house red to accompany my steak. We took advantage of some discounts at the beginning, but at full price, our meal including service would have totaled £97—and it was worth every penny. Don’t forget to check out the stylish restrooms, complete with artistic cork designs that align with the overall theme."
