A Wedding Celebration

Two of our lovely friends got married and held their post-nuptial celebrations at Flutes at the Fort. This black and white house makes a fantastic venue for a restaurant, and especially for celebrating a special occasion. We started off with champagne and scrumptious little nibbles on the verandah, before moving inside for the meal.

This kicked off with a Chilled Tiger Prawn Salad, served with mango and pomegranate, with a lime dressing. This was a fantastic, light way to start the meal – the mango was fresh and ripe, the prawns big and juicy and all the flavours complemented each other perfectly.



Moving on to the Entrée, we were served a Vol-au-Vent of Sautéed Fresh Mushrooms in a creamy white wine sauce, which was rich and creamy and smooth.


There was then a Lemon Sorbet interlude, while we quaffed some more fine wine, before the main course arrived – a very succulent Braised Wagyu Beef Cheek with crushed potatoes and baby vegetables, with a Star Anise sauce – pure melt in the mouth gorgeousness.


Of course everyone was feeling very full (and particularly spoilt) by this stage, but everyone evidently managed to save a tiny space in those expanding bellies of ours to squeeze in a decadently rich Warm Chocolate Tart with Vanilla Ice Cream… a perfect end to a perfect evening.


So congratulations to a gorgeous couple… (you know who you are!)… and thank you for a fantastic evening of fabby food and fun….

  2. No not poor lighting - more likely to be poor photographer I think ... and one who had been partaking in pre-dinner celebration champagne ;-)
