An<br />
enchanting<br />
restaurant<br />
Tulips and daffodils are<br />
blooming and the blossoms<br />
budding in the enchanting garden<br />
at Memorys Restaurant.<br />
Whether calling in for a coffee,<br />
tea or meal, Sue and Emma make<br />
dining a special experience with<br />
superbly healthy and original<br />
dishes served in a friendly and<br />
efficient manner.<br />
“With the new season’s vegetables<br />
coming in, meals have a fresher<br />
lighter taste which is a lovely change<br />
after the comfort foods of winter,”<br />
says Sue Giddens owner of Memorys<br />
Restaurant.<br />
With an inventive culinary style,<br />
Sue varies the menu every week<br />
to suit in-season produce and<br />
the weather making for a magical<br />
surprise in each and every delicious<br />
dish. Her salad bowl is a permanent<br />
on the menu and while its tastes<br />
change each week, it is immersed<br />
with wonderful flavours combining<br />
crisp light textured salad greens<br />
including home grown produce,<br />
such as fresh rocket, fennel and tasty<br />
herbs. There are also a few surprises<br />
like lovely imported pomegranates,<br />
tossed through to add bright jewels<br />
amongst the greens. Customers can<br />
also add a little protein with smoked<br />
salmon as a side.<br />
The desserts change too, with<br />
gluten, dairy free and refined sugar<br />
free options available. They might<br />
be a deconstructed donut or Greek<br />
custard tart and the sweet platter<br />
is on the menu all day, with bite<br />
sized healthy options to satisfy the<br />
taste buds without the guilt. Sweet<br />
treats vary each day and might<br />
include Cacao bliss balls, freeze<br />
dried coconut slice, salted peanut<br />
caramel fudge, a chocolate option<br />
or a chicory coffee slice.<br />
Relax in the sheltered courtyard;<br />
dine in doors or in the gallery<br />
room and take a stroll through<br />
the herb garden, making it easy to<br />
take a break away from everyday<br />
life at Memorys Restaurant.<br />
“We welcome people to pop<br />
in and enjoy the ambience of<br />
our place,” says Sue. “There are<br />
croissants, scones, savouries and<br />
our sweet treat platter for a light<br />
snack with coffee, a tea or organic<br />
cold drinks.”<br />
