The Woods of Windsor

H and I found ourselves at Woods of Windsor a few Fridays back. We’ve always wanted to try it and were lucky enough to get seats.

After looking through the menu and having a hard time picking what to eat, our hostess suggested the degustation menu. Perfect! We added a couple more entrees and ended up eating one of the most amazing meals ever.

Extra Entrees:

• Coffin Bay Oysters with Mignonette Dressing
• Zucchini Flowers with goat cheese, beetroot and pine nuts

Degustation Menu:

• Queensland Spanner Crab with shaved foie gras, compressed melon and wild herbs
• Smoked Kingfish with tomato tartare, pickled celery and mustard seeds
• Crispy Duck breast (I wasn’t able to get the whole thing!!! But it was so good.)
• H got the Peanut Butter Bar dessert with raspberry sorbet and salted peanut caramel. Really bold and contrasting flavours but he loved every bite.
• I got the Summer Berry Pudding dessert with clotted cream, berry granita and pop rock candy. Mine had a combination of fresh and freeze dried berries – the textures in my mouth was out of this world.

I really loved the feel of the place too. It was special without being hoity toity. I can’t wait to go back for another great meal.
