Celebratory meal (not a blog but a menu)

A couple of days ago we went out for a meal (which happened to coincide with a friend's birthday) in the centre of culinary excellence that is Knockholt. Other than say that the meal was wonderful, all I'm going to do is post the menu of the nine courses that were served.

Mixed herbs potato cake, ratatouille chutney, crème fraiche

Soupe de poisson, rouille, grated Emmenthal, croutons

Smoked haddock Okra, grapefruit, avocado and almond salad

Boeuf Bourguignon

Braised saddles of rabbit, boulangère potato, roasted beetroot, wild mushrooms, red wine sauce

French cheese plate, red onions jam

Rich chocolate ganache, cassis sorbet

Light apples tart, vanilla ice cream

Tea or coffee and homemade chocolates
