Fennel a classic dish in a restaurant merely means going to any eatery and ordering anything from a burger to a Sunday roast or spaghetti bolognaise at your local Italian (or fish and chips) and finding that the chef has tried to do his personal version of it without telling you..
A burger with unexpected added chilli, a portion of apple crumble on a plate decorated with raspberry coulis and strawberries, I kid you not (and the portion of apple crumble was minute). You go somewhere order something you know and it is not, quite, what you get.
The restaurant at Bagnor, at least tells you what you are going get and knowing that I am not sure any of the above dishes make me want to go there. I do not do pink meat, let alone raw, salsify is a flatulent. I have eaten it once, I will never eat it again. The rest of the ingredients sound delicious, but not together. As Ernie Wiser once said, 'all the right notes, just not in the right order',
