Southern End Restaurant, Denmark (2 stars)

427 Mount Shadforth Road
Denmark
3 km west of Denmark

Face, Facilities and Function

The location is great sitting high up on the hill overlooking the valley and the sea below. The service was friendly and slow, or should I just be a bit more relaxed, this is a holiday...


Food

The beer is nice, really nice.

The Food really a disappointment. This is mostly fake posh food (FPF). They are trying to hard to be up market and have forgotten the basics.

The Stout beef pie was a bland stew with a little patch of pastry on the top. If you are going to call it a Pie it needs a certain amount of pastry, this one does not cut it. ($20)

The field mushrooms with the "drizzle of Cabernet jus" was swimming in something akin to balsamic vinegar. Really not good. ($23)

The seafood "Frenzi" was very ordinary and expensive for what it was ($42)

Final Word

The poor food is remembered more than the view for me here. If I go back I will order something simple, perhaps fish and chips, that has to be better.
