My first chef's table experience, and I'm glad that I had it at Simon Rogan's Aulis Cartmel! *´ސު｀* It was easily the best dining experience I've ever had! Aside from the food, my favourite part was getting a glimpse into the magic behind the scenes✨ We had a great time talking to the development chef Ben Gallier while he prepped. So much thought, respect, passion have gone into the sourcing, experimentations, and cooking! ⁡ 𝐓𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐮 — 𝟒𝐭𝐡 𝐉𝐮𝐥𝐲, 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟏 ⁡ 🦞 Native lobster and gooseberry tartlet, Cherry Belle radish, rosehips 🐖 Fritter of Duroc pig and smoked eel, lovage and fermented sweetcorn 🥄 Berkswell pudding caramelised in birch sap, stout vinegar, aged Berkswell 🦀 Snowball turnips, Cornish crab steamed over aromats, pickled pine and smoked pike perch 🥕 Lisse de meaux carrots, scallops from Orkney, black garlic and nasturtium 🥖 Sourdough bread with cultured butter and rendered pork belly with apple, shallots and crispy pork skin 🥔 Ratte potatoes in onion ashes, pickled walnut, melted Westcombe 🍄 Gem lettuce, king oyster mushrooms, toasted millet, thyme leaves and elderflower 🦪 Seaweed custard and beef broth, Porthilly oysters, our blend of caviar 🥬 Duncan cabbage cooked in buttermilk and grilled over binchotan, horseradish and Welsh truffles. 🐟 West coast Turbot with bay shrimps, Karmazyn broad beans, watercress, verbena 🐑 Texel Cross lamb loin roasted on the bone, Red baron onions and pineapple sage 🧀 Frozen Tunworth cheese, malt crumb, gooseberries, lemon thyme 🍓 Sheep’s yoghurt and Malwina strawberries, farm sorrel and sweet cicely 🍮 “Anvil” — Caramel mousse with our miso, apple and spruce 🍬 Mint stones, honey pastilles, teacake, marigold cornets ⁡ 𝐍𝐨𝐧-𝐚𝐥𝐜𝐨𝐡𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐜 𝐝𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐤𝐬 𝐩𝐚𝐢𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 (Tim and I didn't choose the wine pairing because of 🚗, but we were blown away by the selection!) ⁡ 🍹 Elderflower cordial and soda 🧋 Milky oolong kombucha 🍶 Sparkling Darjeeling 🥃 Cold brew Longjing 🫖 Puerh, Nannuo Shan cooked Puerh, Lu family and Jin Yu Xuan.

Beautiful Beaumaris 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿❤️ What a joy it was to wander round this lovely town. In fact, everywhere we saw on the island of Anglesey was a joy 😍 Anglesey is the largest Welsh island / 7th largest in the U.K. and has lovely beaches as well as 120 ancient monuments to explore. I can see why Kate & Wills lived on the island for a few years 😉 Beaumaris is perfect for a lazy day in the sun slowly wandering and discovering independent shops - one of my favourite ways to spend a day on holiday. Definitely worth keeping a note for a future visit to Wales!
