    Starters

    Starters or larger appetizers to kick off your dinner party menu in style.  Smaller meals whet the appetite and serve as the opening act for the main course. Fresh and seasonal ingredients, as always, and packed full of flavor.

    An elegant asparagus mousse amuse bouche will serve as edible decor topped with a smoked trout and served with a crisp glass of sauvignon blanc. Or, in the summer months, try some feta zucchini fritters as a more casual way to begin.

    • Deep-fried Chickpeas With Spicy Harissa Chorizo Dip
    • Asparagus Mousse Amuse Bouche
    • Baby Squid Calamari
    • Savory Profiteroles With Creamy Goat Cheese
    • Baked Panko Crumbed Mushrooms With Garlic Dipping Sauce
    • Charred Broccoli & Brussel Sprouts Salad
    • Baked Camembert in Bread
    • Beetroot Carpaccio With Whipped Goat Cheese
    • Spicy Biscuits With Parmesan Cheese
    • Paprika Hummus (Without Garlic)
