Midsummer House, Cambridge


No dinner today, at least not at a traditional time, however after this lunch there is no need to eat for the rest of the day. I was taken out to Midsummer House and had the Taste of Midsummer Tasting Menu. All I can say is: wow. No scratch that: WOW! I’ve never had anything quite like it. I savour every bite and I take plenty of photos to record the event. I have a glass of South African Rustenburg Red with the mains and a glass of Muscat with the desserts.

The Menu

3rd course: Sauteed scallop, celeriac and truffle
