SURREY ROCKS - DECEMBER 2021

RESTAURANT REVIEW
to sit - a nice touch in a restaurant when three or more tables
were available, as was the case on our Thursday review night.
We decided to sit near to the piano as we heard the
great news a live singer was due on at 8.30pm.
We started off with a cocktail – the Mojito
was amazing and had lots of lime but not too
much sweetness from the brown sugar and
the Daquiri was amazing too. The glasses
were huge too – another bonus!
We opted for a meat and cheese sharing
platter instead of the usual courses and
it was the perfect accompaniment to the evening. There’s
something truly wonderful about breaking bread with friends – it
is so sociable.
Our waiter asked us if we preferred red or white so to pair us
with the right wines to go with our dinner. We opted for red and
an Italian favourite Negramaro from Puglia was recommended.
It went so well with our platter and did not break the bank either
at £5.50 for a large glass or £27.00 for the bottle.
The singer came on at 8.30pm as advised and
wowed the wine bar – the piano playing in the
background is such an elegant touch to an
evening out. We could have been in Capri not
Leatherhead High Street!
SUMMARY
In summary, I have to say we had a blast
and stayed on for another cocktail to enjoy
the music and ambience.
Food wise there was the widest selection
of Italian cured meats and hams and the
cheese was sublime. The fresh bread had lots of
doughiness and crunchy crust – perfect for eating with
the cheese, ham, olive and condiments on offer. Even the
breadsticks were good too!
We will definitely be back.
