This was our second visit to The Black Footed Pig and we hope to go back many more times. The food is sensational, the staff are very friendly and helpful, the service is excellent and the venue has the most wonderful atmosphere.You could easily sit for hours soaking it in. We had a few different starters (brioche with shipped feta, croquettes and wagyu bresaola) and then ordered the beef cheek and mushroom paella. Everything was brilliant but we especially loved the paella - very different to the standard seafood paella but absolutely divine.
Attentive staff, amazing food, great outlook and beautiful decor. I highly recommend the tasting menu. The proportions are perfect and the blend of tastes make the meal a true experience
I made last minute change in the restaurant and I cannot be more happy. Good food,good price and very good service. Lazi was amazing. The only feedback I have is there needs to be table lighting.
We got the beef cheek and wild mushroom paella to share - though the flavours were rich, the rice was just too salty for us. On the other hand the beef cheeks were not really seasoned, so together it balanced out somewhat. But towards the end we couldnโt finish the rice once all the meat was eaten. The duck and pork terrine was a nice starter, along with the bread and cultured butter. Overall a lovely intimate atmosphere, with good food and cocktails, but just needs some fine tuning!
First dinner landed on Tassie. We arrived earlier than our booking, floor staff kindly welcomed us and offer us seats. We ordered โfeed meโ options (like a omakase course) plus one wine pairing separated and one pineapple cocktail. The starters are raw fish, cured meat and bread. The raw fish are served with hummus, preserved fish (maybe anchovy?) - itโs fresh and savoury, which really lightened our tastes bud. White wine with nice acidity pairs well with the starters. Second course is chicken skewers and fried puff with cheese filling. The chicken thigh is cooked just right and very juicy. The main is lamb with green salad and baked potato. The lamb is tender and the sauce is nice. One slice comes with some raw fat, which is a bit chewy and lamby (but it is lamb) so not complaining. Another highlight of the night is the yummy basque, topped with honey or some syrup and the candied(?) cherry. The desert wine served with the silky slice finishes the night smoothly. Overall, we enjoyed the starter and desert more than the meats and main. The team on the floor is friendly and being professional to explain and introduce each course with their ingredients.
