Fermented Foods Tasting Dinner
60,00 £ par personne

'Boost Your Immune System'
A tantalising five-course tasting menu with a focus on Fermented Foods.
Fermented foods have been consumed around the world for thousands of years. From more familiar foods such as cheese, yoghurt and sourdough bread to more specialised ingredients such as kimchi and miso from Asia, sauerkraut and creme fraiche from Europe, shanklish and doogh from the Middle East, poi and atole agrio from the Americas, and garri and togwa from Africa to name a few.
A carefully crafted menu, distinctly different, focusing on an aspect of cooking that Nina
holds dear.

The food was delicious and our waiter was friendly and welcoming. The menu is fairly limited but they have meat, fish and vegetarian items and appear to change the menu regularly. Cost is higher than average but you get what you pay for. Recommended.

We enjoyed the most delicious steak pies for lunch with dreamy mash, kale and red cabbage. The welcome is warm with friendly, knowledgeable, attentive staff. The atmosphere is lively and enjoyable. A real favourite for us. Many thanks 😊

We stayed for 3 nights and ate in the restaurant on each night including the tasting menu on the Friday night. The food is imaginatively prepared, consistently well cooked and full of flavour. This is Michelin star level gastronomy in an informal and relaxed atmosphere - don't expect huge portions but we never left hungry! The wine list was highly unusual - a focus on natural wine making introduced some really interesting bottles that you are unlikely to sample anywhere else - keep an open mind and be prepared to be favourably surprised - this is particularly true of the wine pairing on the tasting menu. Last and absolutely not least the staff were without exception excellent - friendly without being over familiar, knowledgeable about the food/wine, cheerful and accommodating. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Black Bull and will return when we are next in the area.

Good tasting menu. Great value at the price. Junior staff need more training as to how to explain the menu items. Restaurant was beautifully decorated.
One suggestion, better cutlery

We came to this restaurant two years ago and had a memorable meal. If you walk away with memories that start with the bread you had as part of the starter—rich with seeds, deliciously soft, and raised by a salty, unctuous quenelle of butter—then there's a reason to return. We didn't know that the Black Bull had struggled to keep staff in the kitchen.
Our visit was to celebrate my wife's birthday, which was still a couple of weeks away. We were surprised when the waiting staff questioned the timing of the celebration. I guess the Black Bull only offers a 'qualified' birthday meal on the actual day.
Our meal began with the Bread & Seasoned Cultured Butter, Maple Pea Hummus & Crackers and the Crispy Howgill Herdwick Lamb & Black Garlic. I was reminded of my first visit, which started with the Herdwick Lamb. However, I had forgotten the portion was just two crispy-coated inch-square cubes with a dollop of black garlic. It was decent. However, the bread, a highlight of our first visit, was a disappointment—plain white slices with a few seeds scattered on top, a far cry from what we had experienced before.
My wife had British White Beef, while I had Venison Loin for my main dish. Here, the meal dropped off in terms of standards and taste. The beef had quite a bit of gristle. That she left so much showed how little consideration the kitchen had made in selecting these two small beef rounds—in a main costing more than £30. Later, the waiter said all meat of this sort had some gristle. I suggest there should be no waste when you get this sort of cut and size. For me, my venison was cooked well enough but pretty tasteless. I expected a little gaminess but got nothing from it. If I tasted blind, I doubt I could have told you I was even eating venison.
We closed the meal with dessert, but my wife's choice—a lemon posset—was not as expected and left untouched. Yet, it appeared on the bill with an automatic 10% service charge. Overall, the meal was dismal.
