Parmesan Cheese Bread

Amuse Bouche

Lamb tartlet with goat cheese croquetas

Appetizer 1

Pan fried haloumi (grilled cheese) with chilled marinated vegetables and lemon emulsion

This one had an interesting mix of flavours with the grilled cheese being salty and the marinated vegetables which was sour.

This was the first time I tried something like this. It was definitely unusual, you either like it or hate it if you don't enjoy green peas in particular.

Palate Cleanser

Malibu lime sorbet
