Roots

My very good friend turned 30 a few days ago and celebrated in style. She treated us to a 6 course extravaganza at Roots restaurant at the Forum Homini hotel.


The menu




The palette cleanser - squid with grapefruit
Light and yummy. I could've had an entire plate of this


Cob tartare
The mushrooms were sweet and tasty and the rest of the dish was...different



Curried monkfish
This was enjoyable


Duck breast
The duck was a little chewy but the ravioli was AMAZING! It wasn't even on the menu - pleasant surprise. The dried strawberries were also a pleasant treat



Pork loin
I don't like pork (unless it's gammon, bacon or ham). The dish was interesting though and the coffee sauce was different



Lemon meringue
I LOVE LEMON MERINGUE. I LOVE LEMON MERINGUE. I LOVE LEMON MERINGUE
This was amazing




Baked passion fruit tart

Twas lovely. Not as lovely as the lemon meringue :-)



I'm definitely going back there again to sample the rest of their menu
