L’Enclume - Cumbria
I’ve eaten here 5 times and never had a course I didn’t like out of the 70 or so there have been. I also spent a week in the kitchen many years ago and loved the atmosphere in there as many high end kitchens can be brutal.
Dessert course at L’Enclume
Moor Hall - Ormskirk
Opened and headed up by Mark Birchall who was Head chef at L’enclume when I staged there. Mark is a great guy cooking amazing food. A walk around the kitchen garden on the way from the car park is a nice way to start the experience.
Black pudding snacks
Mana - Manchester
Beautiful food cooked by a team in an open kitchen that’s basically in the restaurant but not intrusive. Great to watch them work as a team moving to busier sections through service helping each other out.
