The Brasserie

Priya Ramkissoon & Valentina Sutto Myvillage Local

When it comes to fine dining, The Brasserie is an elevating experience. Tucked away in the leafy surroundings of Surrey, this super chic restaurant oozes style and decadence.

Though its interior offers no conquering décor, its formal outlook and conservative setting does dampen the mood - and may be a little rigid at times. But with a few swigs of their delicate and crisp servings of Petite
Chablis wine we soon loosen up.

With a menu consisting of Roast Sea Trout, Venison and Suffolk Mule Lamb, we were mesmerised by their detailed offerings. For starters, the chosen Carpaccio of Bluefin Tuna and Nicoise Dressing was a crisp opening both zingy and lingering on the palate. The Lamb Offal & Smoked Bacon served warm on bed of salad was an interesting combination of great texture and very strong flavours.

But it was their main course, the Wild Halibut marinated in flavoursome herbs which ceased all hunger pangs - and painstakingly presented too. The roast loin of rabbit was an extremely mouth watering too. Served with
a Hogsback Ale braised leg warm and crunchy pie alongside white broad beans. This plate was the ultimate winner. Both courses were accurate in portion and were devoured effortlessly.

Temptingly, we moved onto their dessert menu and were instantly drawn to their chocolate tart and Pistachio mousse. The mousse served was fluffy and filling, especially when sidelined with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
The chocolate tart on the other hand made a sugary explosion.

There is no denying The Brasserie is armed with class and personality. And when compared to other unique establishments it is fair to say that this restaurant is the Chanel of restaurants that will no doubt charm all.
