Zanzibar cafe

Let's try again

Well today I had one of the best meals cooked by a forum member. Now excuse the bad photos as I was too busy stuffing my face.

First course

Oysters chilled pickled ginger and warm wakame/lemon


Perfect balance between sweet salty and creamy. I normally prefer Pacific oysters but this complemented and enhanced the Sydney rock oysters beautifully.

Cured yellowfin tuna with beetroot and creme fraiche.



Let's just say that my wife started eating before I could get the chance to take photos. The beetroot works wonderfully here. Adds an earthy flavour.

Main

Free range chicken



Need I say anything? I would eat all my peas as a kid if they came like that.

Beef



I have no idea what that floss was but I want more. Complemented the beef nicely. I kept stealing the small shallots out of my wife's plate

Dessert

Was stuffed by this stage so went with a cheese board and a dessert to share.

 

The presentation is lovely.
I love fine dining. I don't do it enough.

 

! I'd have to drive 150 miles to find one with a similar bill of fare. Looks wonderful. We have a fine dining vacuum here in the sticks, so I am happy when I can simple food well done. You are lucky Rami

 

Wow looks great!

 

Rami drove 300 miles/6 hours to get there:cool1
