Clockwise from top left: mango, cinnamon and strawberry leather; pistachio and matcha; strawberry-from-the-garden; mango, ginger and caramelised lemon peel.

Pomegranate caramel dipping sauce on the side. The sweetened sushi rice cooked in cream was delicious, but a little too damp.

epic sushi feast

(viewed 346 times)
Salmon, swordfish and fillet of venison nigiri. The salmon is topped with slices of it's own skin, salted and fried until crispy. The swordfish was gently poached and served with dill and a beurre noisette. Venison seared and lightly peppered.

More maki than you can shake a stick at. The bright orange stuff is slow-roasted butternut squash puree, which was particularly good. Home-made ponzu also a success. Also sweet white miso soup to start, rhubarb (from the garden) and blood orange jelly with pear and mirin-laced cream to close.
