✨🍂FALLACHAN🍂✨
Last week, the bf treated me to a belated birthday lunch , my celebration spot of choice.🎉
Founded by , the food is hyper-seasonal and hyper-local, a beautiful snapshot of time and place, honouring and celebrating nature’s rhythms, the land’s abundance, and the chain of people from ground to plate.🌿
We share the exact same food philosophy – food that connects to TIME, PLACE, PEOPLE and PLANET – only Craig does it much better in the kitchen!🔥
My 4th visit, I caught the last days of their autumn lunch menu. Highlights included: Perthshire hedgehog mushrooms, Manor Valley sika deer, Treviso chicory cooked to marmaladey-sweetness, apples, herbs, fruits and ferments preserved in the warm summer months, and of course, Craig’s legendary bread, heavily-peated Octomore sourdough with Bruichladdich whisky wash butter.🍄
Standout wines, both Italian, both from grapes not normally grown in Italy:
Perlé Bianco Riserva 2015 – a Blanc de Blancs rivalling the best champagnes🥂lageder Krafuss Pinot Noir 2022 – elegant and refined, forest floor, white pepper and bags of pinot perfume, rivalling great Burgundy, but with its own high-altitude freshness and minerality!🍷💞
Thanks to Craig, Lauren (their brilliant new maitre’d & somm), and all the team for another very special afternoon.✨
