Clementine is the latest project of Adam Bantock (ex Dieci e Mezzo, A Baker, Temporada) . It also represents something of a lifestyle change, with Adam leaving behind the pans in Canberra to create a cosy little country restaurant (in part of his own house) in Yass. Great portions, stylish presentation, refined technique, no attitude or pretensions!
Highlights
Absolutely loved the fish pie – perfect pastry lid helped gently steam the fish within a white-wine based jus. Stunning.
Beef flank perfectly seared – still rare and juicy.
Loved the hazelnut cake dessert – reminder of times in Piedmont!
Great to see the wine list focussed on local drops – including the more experimental part of the range.
