Restaurant Sat Bains is Nottingham’s only Michelin stared restaurant and boutique hotel.  I was lucky enough to be taken out to dinner in this remarkable restaurant last week.  I had been looking forward to the dinner for weeks and had huge expectations, every expectation was exceeded.

Knowing Sat Bain’s philosophy for giving guests something unique we decided to opt for the tasting menu - a culinary journey through various courses of taste, texture and temperature.  The menu was seven set courses plus a number of sublime surprise courses in the form of Amuse-Bouche prior to the menu starting. 

The “Duck egg 62c with artichoke veloute and Bellota ham” was out of this world.  Every course after this was equally delicious and exciting.  We finished with Blackberries with honey and lavender and were all disappointed that the “culinary journey” was over.

I really cannot recommend this restaurant enough - from the food and wine to the ambience to the knowledgeable staff.  It is expensive, but so are most of the local Gastro Pubs, and if you compare the food at Sat Bains to that of the pubs it is absolutely worth every penny.  I only hope that I can go again and stay the night next time!
