Le Clec – Sweet potato rosti
The sweet potato rosti which was like a huge hasbrown but instead of normal potato it was made with sweet potato. Great idea. It was sitting on a bed of bright green mint pea puree which went well together. Stacked on top there was a  big confit field mushroom, grilled halloumi, a poached egg and porcini crumb. The perfect hangover cure.
Le Clec - Son in law benedict
Le Clec – Son in law benedict

I love son in law eggs and I love Benedicts so I knew the son in law benedict was gonna be good. an easy choice. It had two slices of sourdough with soft shredded smokey ham hock, deep fried soft boiled eggs, a sweet and sour tamarind glaze, a creamy buttery hollaindaise and fried shallots. Very indulgent.

The seafood linguine looked amazing with a prawn bisque, parmesan cheese, truffle oil and crispy salmon skin.
Le Clec - French brioche
Le Clec – French brioche
We ended on the toasted brioche for dessert and it was fantastic. The soft sweet bread with a tart yuzu curd, soft meringue with crisp meringue pieces, whipped chocolate ganache which was like a rich decadent mousse and then we poured the orange maple over the top. I love the orange tang in the sweet maple it helped balance the flavours.
I heart Le clec!
