Adam Reid at The French is to launch a shorter, ‘more accessible’ version of its Signature tasting menu. The menu will be available midweek, on Wednesdays and Thursdays, through August, and will cost £75 a head.
The menu is usually £140 a head per person on Saturday nights, and £125 from Wednesday to Friday, with £85 for the accompanying wine. The new midweek menu comes with a ‘Tipsy’ drink pairing, for £40, and a ‘Not So Tipsy’ offering of soft drinks for £30.
Among the dishes on offer on the ‘Initials’ menu will be Peter’s courgette blossom with eel & tongue, barbecued salt marsh lamb from the Rhug Estate with Wirral courgette and gravy, and baked English custard with mint and Cheshire strawberry.
