They go-all out, serving the best Red Poll fillet (Р’Р€35), with a rocket salad, more of those marvellous chips, and roasted baby tomatoes.

With this I had a glass of Chateau rose РІР‚вЂњ all strawberries and cream, with a touch of lemon, and the perfect match.

A very simple green salad, lightly dressed wouldР’В definitelyР’В suffice. All the elements were prime, but I felt it was a bit much for the lobster as an accompaniment. The dish also came with a caper berry, fennel, mixed leaf and sundried tomato salad. The only superlative I can think of is РІР‚ВimmenseРІР‚в„ў. Imagine if a chunky chip made a baby with aР’В roastie. Potatoes are baked in their skins, cooled, then cut and fried. On the side was the most enormous vat of chips IРІР‚в„ўve ever seen. The beast arrived on the shell under a rich,Р’В gratinated sauce- each piece of lobster cooked just-so, and with just enoughР’В of that sauce to compliment, rather than overtake the flavour of the main ingredient. Sticking with the seafood theme, IР’В had to order the lobster Thermidor (Р’Р€28 for a half and Р’Р€50 for a whole), sourced from the east coast.
