There are lots of reasons I keep going back
to Adam’s:
-a very good value lunch menu (£25 for 3
courses)
-friendly service
-the opportunity to show it off to anyone
who’ll listen to me
-regularly changing seasonal menus
-and the food’s not bad either
Actually the food’s great, its interesting
but not too experimental. My most recent visit was a Saturday lunch, I’m
guessing they’re primed to say “nice to see you again” if it’s a repeat visit
but it still makes for a nice start to things. Given a still slightly delicate
post-chemo digestive system I unfortunately felt like the 3 course lunch was as
much as I’d be able to manage. They give 2 options per course, I decided to go
for the confit salmon to start-it came with Jerusalem artichoke and chorizo
that for once didn’t repeat on me. Then I had Pollock with pea puree, apple and
black pudding (black pudding is not a big favourite of mine but it was more
than edible). So desert presented a bit of a conundrum-how do you choose
between lemon cake and “textures of chocolate”? I couldn’t so we decided we
would order both and share half each. I’m glad we did because they were both great,
although I wasn’t entirely sure about olives with lemon cake (anyone thinking
of doing the same thing I’d say go for the chocolate first then the lemon cake
is a lovely refreshing end to a lovely meal).
Unfortunately the news that this place is
open and very much worth a visit is spreading. They’ve been open for less than
6 months and have now got their first Michelin star and a very good review in
the Good Food Guide. You can still get in relatively easily for lunch but
dinner is a different matter and they’re fully booked on Saturday evenings for
the next 2 months.
I'm already planning my next visit...
