New to the menu this week – crispy raviolo filled with poached pear & goat’s cheese, served with candied walnuts & honey ice cream.

This dish is inspired by ‘seadas’ – Sardinian deep-fried pastries filled with fresh pecorino and drizzled with honey. These parcels were originally eaten by shepherds as a main course and was a way of using up their abundance of sheep’s-milk cheese. The raviolo are filled with sliced pear poached in white wine and goats’ cheese before being drizzled with honey and served with honey ice cream and candied walnuts.

Terry, our Head Sommelier recommends pairing this dish with a glass of Domaine Du Traginer Banyuls Ambre. This rich dessert wine pairs beautifully with the ample caramel characters in this dish, and without overbearing the delicate flavours of the pear and the walnuts, this wine makes the dish sing…
