On a perfect Sunday, we're joined by Elle and Al for a leisurely lunch. From our vantage point, there's uninterrupted views towards the Yarra River.
For Sunday lunch, there are options of a full degustion, a limited choice menu and the full a la carte menu. We opt for a mix from both menus but begin with glasses of bubbly.
First course:
Paalo's choice: B.L.S. (mi-cuit salmon, veloute of lettuce, onion cream, bacon crumbs)
Al's choice: Egg Poached at 62° (textures of potato, sherry vinegar, maple syrup)
My choice: Tempura Giant Prawns with Wasabi Mayonnaise (special of the day)
Elle's choice was the Chwix.
Main Course:
Al/Elle's choice: Seared Salmon, scallops, cauliflower puree
My choice: Fillet of WA Beef (silverbeet, carrot cream, pomme pave, cherry marmalade)
Paalo's choice: Rib Eye with smashed peas, mint butter, carrot puree and fondant potato (special of the day)
My choice: Pain Perdu (dates, frozen coffee, mint ice)
Other desserts had were the Fenix Crème Brulee 2006 and Tahitian Vanilla Mousse.
