The Green Room Restaurant

A wonderful discovery in a glorious location opposite the majesty of Lincoln Cathedral with food and service to match. For starters my wife enjoyed the quite exceptional Pan Seared King Scallops ( with Ham knuckle compression, vanilla soaked grapes, baked hazelnuts, pickled shallots) whilst for myself the Wood Pigeon (with Pork crackling, golden raisin crumble, beetroot, black berries, jus) was an absolute, mouth-watering delight. For the main I went for Gressingham Duck Breast (Confit duck leg, braised potato, pickled turnip, blackberry puree) and my other half enjoyed the Braised Beef (with Chive mashed potato, pot roast root vegetable, horseradish, red wine jus). The presentation and taste was quite simply culinary artistry of a standard seldom found in the majority of eateries in Lincoln. We both shared the Cinnamon Poached Pear for dessert (with Almond frangipane, blackberry sorbet, white chocolate) which provided a nicely balanced conclusion to a gourmet standard meal. Having eaten at restaurants both here in the UK and in France (which include a relatively local Michelin starred establishment) I have to say that the Green Room is on a level with these. The atmosphere was relaxed and the service provided by Nigella our waitress was both thoughtful and attentive to the needs of the customer. I encourage all you foodies out there to pay a visit to this gem of a restaurant.
