Tonight we tried out a new Devonport restaurant Charlottejack run by Ben Milbourne who came 5th in the 4th series of Masterchef.We saw him do a cooking demonstration at the Woolmer's Rose Show last weekend so thought we would try it.
First Ben at work and the restaurant.

The menu constantly changes depending on the local produce available.Tonight's menu.
.
At first thought it was maybe a bit too smart and trendy for us but we were wrong.The dishes are for sharing.We started with the broadbeans sans chilli and the mushroom soup.
.
.
The broad beans were young and you eat pod and all.Nice but not a wow factor.On the other hand the soup certainly had the wow factor.Fantastic.
We then shared the pork belly and the beef cheeks.Without asking the beef cheeks were served without the chilli so mrsdrron could share.
.

The pork belly was wonderful.Lovely flavours.Our favourite.The beef cheek was so tender yet moist and tasty so still very enjoyable.
We decided to share the apple and rhubarb crumble for dessert.
Fantastic.
So definitely recommended.
No Amex.
