 |
| we went on a very important adventure, through the tunnel with its salmon coloured lights... |
 |
| on the motorway north, bit dry aint it guys, the landscape in parts looks almost salmon in colour... |
 |
| we travelled for an hour and then we were there, you see b has spent like ages helping this restaurant rebrand themselves she even designed this sign... |
 |
| see the sign... |
 |
| that is b's handwriting... true! |
 |
the restaurant is set on a vineyard in matakana www.plumerestaurant.co.nz |
 |
| and the owners clyde and farida had invited us to come try out the foodibles... |
 |
| but first we went for a walk, b & c thought it might tire us out, like if! |
 |
| we even had a special gazebo to dine in... |
 |
| we settled in and put on our good manners faces cos it was all rather flash... |
 |
| the menu, which b did too, was full of so many nommy foodibles b & c struggled to decide... |
 |
| somehow it didnt seem right not to order the salmon carpaccio served with scallops, lime, herbs and extra virgin olive oil... |
 |
it was gooooood!... |
 |
| then they had the rillette of pork and duck with roasted scallops, mustard, fruit and baby gherkins... |
 |
| hey a rawhide bone doesn't cut it guys... |
 |
| the salmon was so fresh it just melted in your mouth...we even saw the chef picking all the herbs for it... |
 |
| b & c were quite taken with the rillette too, the roasted spinach & pomegrannate with the balsamic reduction was a taste revelation... |
 |
| and then we smelt it before we saw it... |
 |
| farida, the owners, very own special chicken curry with the most fabulous spiced basmati rice we've ever had... |
 |
| hey doyle i think they've forgotten about us, oi guys down here... |
 |
| full, b & c where not gonna stop they squeezed in a pick-me-up espresso genoise layered with homemade mascarpone and finished with zabaione... crickey! |
 |
| wee pigs... arf arf arf |
 |
| after 2 fabulous hours it was time to head home... |
 |
| i'm a bit stonkered now moll, i can feel a major snooze coming on... moll you hear me?... |
