It’s a bit irritating isn’t it? Why is the most important course so often overlooked?
Last night’s issue wasn’t the classic where you come to pick puddings and it’s basically a selection of slightly upmarket ice creams and a sticky toffee pudding, no these guys actively TROLLED the pudding course.
Options: Cheese - not a pudding Fig, yoghurt, honey and almond - not a pudding unless you’re hippie parents who are lying to your kids Prune and Armagnac ice cream - this is like the edge-lord flavour your crazy dad who you can’t find presents for chooses at the ice cream parlour. But just as the only option?! Rum baba to share - I mean this would almost seem like a pudding but in fact it was so alcoholic I may as well have ordered a shot of (not Kraken & therefore not the best) rum with some cream and cake mixed in.
Anyway, in the end I had a really tasty dessert wine so I guess it was fine
I’m with you on this one, it’s a terrible pudding menu. But I get the feeling everything else about this place would probably have been wanky too, so what were you doing there?
I am happy for those to be on there as more esoteric choices.
I would just like something sweet and a bit standard. Chocolate is good, cheesecake/pastry options are good. A selection of ice creams, maybe even some that are a bit interesting like salted caramel, that sort of thing.
Well it was pretty hip. It was Western Laundry (or something like that). The main plates are all sharing plates and the veggie options were excellent, as was the wine, beer and bread we had.
