COWFISH

BEST FOR Innovative fare in a cool space. FOOD The food is a mix of east and west, with sushi and dim sum on one side and meat and hamburgers on the other. Start with a dim sum platter to share: choose from fillings such as beef; lamb; pork and shrimp; prawn and cream cheese; chicken, coriander and cashew nuts; or chicken, ginger and spring onion. Next, opt for a selection from their Little Plates menu, which could be spring rolls, exquisite prawn tempura or even tom yum soup. The burgers are the business, as is the delicious wok-charred beef fillet with smoky soya sauce, and crispy fried chicken strips in Japanese breadcrumbs. The flavoursome food is inventive, doesn’t follow any traditional route and is beautifully presented. DRINKS The wine selection covers a broad spectrum.

You could also have a spectacular flaming gin cocktail. SERVICE It’s swift and sweet with a great vibe.

AMBIENCE Contemporary chic with an easy atmosphere. (DdB)
