Restaurant Review - Carole's Place, Burley ***** Up and coming trendy, bijou dining spot Andy & Carole's was our venue for dining out this week. The restaurant has seen an impressive refit and facelift since the previous owners departed, with a comfortable blend of retro chic tableware and bold modern colours dominating the lounge. Pre dinner champagne and canapes were served in the lounge before we proceeded to the dining kitchen for the main event, it's always nice to be able to see the chef at work, and although I wouldn't like to work in an open kitchen, chef Carole Newton seems unflappable as she preps up. The starter was a well balanced, thick and tasty tomato and basil soup with big hunks of baguette, served with a very fine Chateau Lapetterie St Emillion '98. For main course we were presented with fresh baked salmon, layered with goats cheese, served wellington style in pastry, simply presented with stir fried mange tout and minted new potatoes. The salmon was moist and succulent, the pastry buttery, rich and golden, delightful. The main course was enjoyed with a Bestheim Tokay-Pinot Gris. A sumptuous dessert cake, chocolate topped with crunchy chocolate coated toffee bits and lathered with caramel sauce was served, with another fine Claret, I think, but details are getting a bit hazy by now.
