Today Cornwall 365 was invited to a Mediterranean inspired taster menu lunch at Landal Gwel an Mor. I am so gorgeously full that I can just about sit here and upload some of the images I managed to get before tucking into all 17 dishes – yep, that’s right, all 17 dishes.
Lunch was in The Terrace Bar – and whilst the weather varied between warming sunshine and frantic hail showers, the food was Mediterranean in taste but locally and seasonally sourced and created by Executive Chef, Joe lado Devessa – Spanish born, Classically French trained.
The experience was heightened with St Austell Brewery pairing wines and beers with each dish.
You’ll have to excuse the food photo skills, or lack thereof, i was too intent on getting stuck in.
half -eaten: Salt baked beetroot salad with halloumi and crispy kale
Pilgrim scallop
Baked goats cheese with Pequillo pepper and membrillo (a quince paste)
Monkfish wrapped in Serrano ham with salsa verde
Hake, Galician style with chorizo
Keralan Vegan curry
Melt-in-the-mouth slow cooked Beef rib
Crema catalana – even tastier than a creme brulee
