Starters to awaken your senses
Begin your culinary journey with starters that balance bold textures and delicate tastes. The Grilled Black Pudding and Pan-fried Foie Gras is an indulgent blend of rich black pudding and luxurious foie gras, complemented by crisp Pickering watercress, sweet apple and vanilla chutney, and a robust scrumpy reduction that ties the dish together beautifully. Alternatively, the Marinated North Sea Octopus Carpaccio offers a fresh maritime touch, paired with a soft boiled village quail’s egg and enriched with the umami of deep-fried anchovy and fermented black garlic, finished with an intriguing artichoke ice cream that adds a surprising creaminess.
Mains showcasing local excellence
For the main course, diners can savor the Saddle of Local Shot Fallow Deer, a dish that celebrates North Yorkshire’s rich foraging heritage. Cooked over coals to preserve its natural flavors, this dish is enhanced with local foraged fungus, its own pate, a juniper crust, and a decadent cognac sauce Rouennaise, creating a harmonious balance of earthiness and refined sauce artistry. Meat lovers will also appreciate the Pan-fried Belted Galloway 10oz Sirloin Steak, served with deep-fried chunky chips and a classic Béarnaise sauce that adds a luxurious, tangy finish.
Decadent desserts and delightful drinks
Conclude your meal with the rich and textured Marathon dessert — a decadent 72% Weiss bitter chocolate creation accented with peanut, nougat, and salted caramel, complemented by a refreshing crème fraiche sorbet that cleanses the palate and leaves a lasting impression.
