"The buttermilk chicken isn’t on the menu, perhaps because he didn’t want to pay for a licence to use his own recipe. Instead there is a moreish buttermilk rabbit with the aniseed waft of tarragon and the punch of horseradish. I could eat bowls of it. Only professionalism stops me doing so." READ REVIEW
