artistic posters flanked by red velvet theatrical curtain, dining at Lancelot brings an elite dining
experience to our city. The restaurant also boast of a majestic bar in the entrance
room.
It
was a preview of Lancelot’s semi buffet
brunch that attracted my attention. I was told that it would be a brunch
and so when I saw the spread at the entrance of room of Lancelot, I was
impressed. How not too when a spread of the most luscious and attractive
seafood was spread out in full galore?
Here’s
the deal. Lancelot will set a date
over a weekend once a month that features this premium semi brunch buffet. Stay
tune in their Facebook to catch this
as it may not happen often.
Diners
are to enjoy all-they-can-eat seafood spread while their main course will be
served later at the table. The kaleidoscope of seafood had us devouring Maine lobsters, US oysters, snow crab legs,
yabbies, salmon, scallops, Norwegian sweet shrimps and more.
The
Maine lobsters, beautifully poached
and tender, has glorious orange roes contrasting its natural white flesh. After
enjoying the tail, the claw was next. Utterly juicy after it’s cracked, the claw
was so sweet and yummy. The snow crab
legs may require a little effort but it’s worth it. You’ll be awarded with
the sweetest and succulent crab meat that teases the palate into oblivious
deliciousness.
US oysters, plump and briny, only needed a
squeeze of lemon to heighten its flavours. I prefer mine with a drop of tobacco
sauce too…
I
have had yabbies before but never
this fresh and sweet. Prying the meat from its shells do require certain
technique but nothing too impossible, especially when the award is plump and
succulent yabby meat that is gorgeously fresh and sumptuous.
Salmon,
prepared in many ways by Chef Petr, shows up as Gravlax, Smoked Salmon Tartare, Smoked Salmon and Salmon Sliders. The Gravlax, a splendor
of color on black plate shows house cured salmon served with lots of
condiments. Cured just right, the gravlax is sublime.
Smoked Salmon, nicely medium thick slices, looked
too good to be eaten. Dressed with pickled shallot petals, capers, egg white
and some pretty flowers, the smoked salmon was certainly a big hit with
everyone that day. The Salmon Tartare
had bigger chunks than the usual tartare, not that I mind. Nicely salty and
moreish, it’s also got bits of chopped shallots and bell pepper. I personally preferred
the Gravlax and Smoked Salmon better.
The
Norwegian Sweet Shrimp may take some
getting used to for some but I simply adored it. The texture somehow lets one
think it’s not cooked but it is. It tasted of oceanic sweetest unlike any other
shrimps I have had here and the chef has enhanced its subtlety sweetness with
lemon. Rest assured, I had plenty of this shrimps.
The
Scottish Scallops was also yum.
Seasoned with soy sauce, honey and garlic, the scallops were savory with tinges
of sweetness. I like the firm texture and the scallops were served chilled with
herbs, avocado, lots of onions and pretty edible flowers.
Pickled Herring is also not for everyone. That said,
pickled herring has always been a favorite of mine, perhaps because I enjoy
sourish flavours. This one was so good, I managed to enjoy 3 slices all by my
happy self.
There’s
also the Smoked Mackerel with lots
of mustard seeds and some red onions. Decent with a nice rich smoky note to
counter the rich flavour of the mackerel.
Salmon Sliders, something more cooked for those who
may not enjoy raw salmon, was served with sesame seed buns, some greens and
onions. It was a tad dry for me but maybe it’s because I prefer my salmon less
cooked. Just very minor one since all the other dishes were so scrumptious.
The
main course changes and is based on the freshest catch available. We were
served Pan Seared Brill with Beetroot.
Brill, a flat fish from the Turbot family, the flesh is smooth and soft. The
light buttery note is delightful and the dish is quite delicate yet tasty. Love
the velvety creamy mash with the fish and the beetroot added a nice tangy
touch.
For
dessert, another one that is up to the chef. Simple yet satisfying Chocolate Mousse with layers chocolate
and berry.
No
dashing knights here at Lancelot
Tea-Guild but hey, I am certainly not complaining. Food is ultimately on
high end scale and worthy of the heavy price tag paid.
