    First of all, 5 stars. The meal, the staff and ambience. Attention to detail on taste and…read morepresentation of food is incredible. It was really of the staff for preparing my man a written happy birthday card. He really enjoyed it. We went for the 5 course meal and regretted not doing the 7 course. If we do go back, we'll definitely try it with wine pairing. It's worth it. Highly recommended! The venue is lovely, there is a nice garden outside with a tiny waterfall if you'd like to a stroll too.

It's…read morediscovering an exciting fantastic new restaurant which you can then share with your fellow Yelpers! Though not exactly completely unknown, I don't think the Latymer restaurant is on most foodies' radars. Chef Michael Wignall was recruited from the Devonshire Arms Hotel in North Yorkshire where he won a Michelin star to head up the fine dining restaurant at Pennyhill Park, which is famous for hosting the England rugby team's training camps The Latymer won its first Michelin star this year and speaking to the staff, they're hungry for success and aiming even higher. I think they are well on their way with top class ingredients, innovative cooking methods and combinations, pretty presentation and most importantly, great flavour I took my sister and a friend here on Saturday for my sister's birthday. The 50 cover restaurant is housed in a lovely snug part of the country house hotel The service was very friendly and not overbearing. The staff were all well trained with all the servers able to answer questions about the dishes. There was also no hard sell on the alcohol, which can be annoying in some fine dining places We enjoyed some nice canapes with aperitifs - G&Ts for the ladies and a non alcoholic cocktail for me. It was nice to see a choice of gin offered and eventually, Bombay Sapphire and slow gin were chosen while the barman concocted me a drink with cranberry juice, strawberry and raspberry puree. It's nice for us teetotalers/drivers to feel as valued as the alcohol drinkers The canapes included tiny cigars filled with foie gras & truffle, mini prawn toasts, deep fried risotto balls, prawn sashimi and a variety of breadsticks with 2 dips. All moreish and we had to control ourselves with these and the variety of fresh baked bread Although there were some yummy looking dishes on the a la carte, we went with the 10 course tasting menu 1. Truffle ballotine of marinated foie gras, seared foie gras, carpaccio of duck, beetroot caviar, pickled pear puree with pear crisp, butternut squash sorbet Some of my favourite ingredients on the plate and it was fun to try and mix the different elements on the plate in different mouthfuls 2. Cannelloni of tuna, lime & soy sauce, octopus presse, ginger marshmallow, Oscietra caviar The tuna was divine and matched perfectly with the lime and soy film it was wrapped in 3. Loin & spicy boudin of Lakeland hare, Hereford snails, marjoram cabbage, blck eye peas, bitter chocolate scented jus Cooked sous-vide, the hare was tender and had a gamey flavour. I also loved the marjoram cabbage. My dining companions were surprised how much they enjoyed the boudin noir 4. Seared hand dived scallops, poached quail egg, apple, cider & walnuts, apple emulsion The quail egg yolk oozed out onto the sweet scallop. Yum 5. Warm sardine, Scottish langoustine, anchovy on toast, roast pepper, Bagna Cauda jus The oily sardine was offset perfectly by the sweet pepper 6. Poached & roast croise duck with Agen prunes, coriander gnocchi, shallots, parsley root puree, jasmine jus My favourite dish of the evening - perfectly cooked duck with some innovative and interesting companions. Yes, it did taste of lavender! 7. Fourme d'Ambert, Beaufort, poached quince, smoked paprika crisp, Pedro Ximenez jelly 8. Pear & almond tart, liquorice sabayon, pear sorbet Lovely light tart full of pear flavour 9. Pineapple baba, confit pineapple, coconut cream, coconut sorbet A nice fruity take on the rum baba but once again, very light 10. Warm chocolate moelleux, honey comb, lavender ice cream, honey jelly A rich chocolate dessert with liquid centre. The obligatory popping space dust made an appearance A top class menu. Michael Wignall demonstrated immaculate sourcing of top class ingredients, great knowledge and technique of classic and modern cooking techniques, introduced wow factor into his food and left us with a smile on our faces Only slight disappointment for me was that my dining companions vetoed my wish to ask for a kitchen visit to thank the chef personally. I've been very privileged to have eaten at some terrific 2 and 3 Michelin star etablishments this year - Fat Duck in Bray, Marcus Wareing in London, Aqua in SF and Momofuku Ko in New York. The Latymer is definitely up there with them. They should retain their Michelin star easily next year and be pushing for the next level

    This is one of the best restaurants in the Chippenham area. Not in the town itself but instead…read morenestled in the Wiltshire countryside in the village of Sutton Benger. It's about a 15 minute drive from Chippenham itself. It is extremely popular with locals and tourists. There isn't a restaurant like it anywhere else unless you go out into Bath or Bristol? The cuisine is French, and is extremely good. I've eaten in a lot of nice restaurants in my time and this one is on my favourites list. It is here that I had one of the nicest racks of lamb I have ever eaten. Succulent and juicy it was cooked to perfection and not a scrap of meat was left on the bones. Their signature dish are their dauphinois potatoes. Again these are the nicest I have ever tasted. I have tried several times to replicate them myself bit can never do it. They are out of this world! Creamy and garlicky they are out of this world. The whole meal was just stunning. Completely out of this world I thoroughly enjoyed every mouthful. The restaurant itself is nothing too special, a very simple dining room that seats all diners comfortably without being on top of each other. It could do with better lighting and a bit more of a vibrant atmosphere. The staff are very attentive and you don't have to wait long for drinks or food. This is quite an expensive restaurant so it would be for most people a once a year treat unless of course you have pots of money and you can afford to eat there all the time? I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who wants a venue for a very special occasion. They cater well for large groups and celebratory dinners. The food as I have said is fantastic so you won't be disappointed on that front. I shall definitely be making another reservation again in the future.

    Very good food for a good price. Pleasant service and a lovely atmosphere. Relaxed and unrushed.read more

    Great food, service and ambiance. I will return again. One of Chelmsfords best kept secretsread more

    There are so many amazing hidden gems in Essex, and Russell's Restaurant is one of them…read more The building dates back to 1372, and is a converted barn. Before it was a restaurant, it was a woodshed, where my grandfather would go to buy wood. The restaurant has kept some of the original features, like the beams and high vaulted ceiling, which gives it a very rustic feel. The food is mostly French inspired, but mostly locally sourced (something I always like to see!) For my starter, I had the seared king scallops, which were served with a pea and asparagus compote, black pudding and black truffle oil. Scallops are one of my favourite things, and if it's on a menu it's a pretty safe bet that I'll be ordering it. These, in my opinion, were perfect - which is very high praise, as scallops are really easy to get wrong. These were perfectly seared and crisp on the outside, but really juicy inside - not at all stringy (which is the worst!) and the combination of asparagus, black pudding and truffle oil was divine. My dinner date had the chicken liver parfait, a pate served on toasted brioche with a sultana and sauternes jus. This was followed by a main course of duck - a seared Gressingham duck breast served with duck rillette bon bons, roasted pommes de cocotte potato and sauteed pak choi with cumberland jus. The duck was beautifully cooked, and the meat was meltingly tender. For my main course, I went for the Tournedos Rossini, served medium rare. The aged fillet of Aberdeen Angus beef was served on top of a potato and parsnip rosti, and was topped with seared foie gras, baby spinach, truffle oil and a wild mushroom jus. Basically, it was a whole list of my favourite ingredients on top of one another, and it was delicious. The flavours were delectable, and the whole dish was presented impeccably. After dinner I went for a coffee followed by a coconut and Malibu pannacotta topped with toasted coconut and sweet candied pineapple. The standard of the food and service is really impressive - and the venue has a lot of character, and for the quality of the meal, the price is really quite reasonable.
