Benedicts (Norwich)

• It was only about a week before we went to Norwich for the weekend that I actually turned my mind to the question of where we were going to eat
• 50 tasting menu or a short a la carte menu with three choices for each course (£
• We decided to go a la carte and were pleasantly surprised to be served initially with two little snacks
• Whatever they both were they were delicious little palate teasers for what what to come
• He chose the Norfolk Peer potato with Baron Bigod cheese
• Our starters were served by Richard himself who explained that his restaurant manager
• My starter was farmed rabbit
• The photo below doesn't really do it justice but it was delicious and the carrots were beautifully presented in a sort of terrine style
• Jersey Royals and passion fruit for my boyfriend and truffled guinea fowl with pistachio pilaf rice
• I also love that although this is beautifully cooked food that is carefully presented
• My boyfriend was ogling the cheeseboard on the menu but I managed to persuade him that when the food that is being made is so good
• Both were delicious and it was definitely the right decision to order both with the cheese to follow
• Not least because Richard Bainbridge is due to compete in the Great British Menu on BBC Two for the Central region
