A Father’s Day Treat
by Olivia
Father’s Day – a day to celebrate fatherhood and dig out those special gifts for the old man in your life. Now, I like a novelty t-shirt as much as the next person however there’s only so much wardrobe space you can allocate to these. Instead, why not gift an experience which offers the whole family the chance to spend some quality time together and eat some great food cooked for you by a highly skilled private chef? You don’t even have to bother with the washing up!
We’ll bring the restaurant to you with an experience that is personal, affordable and convenient. Father’s Day is a great reason to book a personal chef and to treat your Dad and, let’s face it, yourself too! We have a range of menus to suit every budget and we can even personalise your menu to get it just right.
To make it even easier for you, we’ve included a couple of our most “dad friendly” menus below. Instead of the classic wine flight, why not take it to the next level and pair each dish with a specially crafted beer? We like a local West Country brew from Wiper and True or for a larger selection check out Beerwulf.com.
Indulge Premium 2
STARTER
Chilli Salted Calamari
with Spicy Chorizo & Grilled Artichoke
Pair this with a German-Style Hefeweizen where the citrus sweetness of the beer will pair perfectly with the spiciness of this dish.
MAIN
Cocoa Rubbed Fillet of Beef
with Stilton Jus, Buttered Mash & Seasonal Greens
Pair this with a Belgian style Flanders beer. The rich flavours of the meat combined with the slight sourness of the beer will bring out the delicious umami flavours on the palate.
DESSERT
Salted Caramel Sticky Toffee Pudding
with Vanilla Pod Crème Anglaise & Grilled Banana
Pair this with a British Barley Wine which will balance the richness of the dish so that you are not left with a cloying finish.
Indulge Level 1
STARTER
Crispy Fried Buttermilk Buffalo Chicken Wings
with Pickles, Southern Hot Sauce Dip & Ranch Dressing
Pair this with a hoppy Pilsner which will balance (and cool!) the spiciness of the wings.
MAIN
Apple & Cider Braised Sticky Baby Back Ribs
with Fennel ‘Slaw & Sweet Potato Fries
Pair this with a Belgian-Style Dubbel. The malty-sweetness of the beer will complement the tangy, sticky sauce beautifully.
Or
The Indulge Stacked Braised Lamb, Crispy Bacon & Sticky BBQ Burger
with Pickled Greens, Toasted Brioche Bun & Homemade Crispy Chunky Chips
Pair this with a London Porter which will cut through and balance the strong flavours of this dish.
DESSERT
Mississippi Mud Double Chocolate Brownie
with Salted Caramel Chunks & Whipped Cream
Pair this with a Chocolate Milk Stout. The chocolate will highlight the roasted character of the beer (known as the Maillard reaction) which will be perfect with this sweet decadent dessert.
