点评:My son treated us to lunch at the Gingko Restaurant yesterday. Exceptionally good table service equal to that experienced here is a rarity and to be commended. The menu items we ordered were kangaroo loin, crispy skin pork belly and Atlantic salmon pastrami, maple roasted vegetables and focaccia bread. For dessert we had affogato and panna cotta and coffee. The food was delicious and beautifully plated with extraordinarily good sauces with rich and complex flavour profiles. The kangaroo was the highlight for me, both tender and succulent but I also loved the diverse selection of baby vegetables, especially the parsnips. As the designated driver, I am mostly only able to drink water at wineries, but Goldings' have a list of exciting "Dry in July" drinks the likes of which I had never previously tasted. My favourite drink contained real aniseeds and a touch of ginger and honey. After lunch we relaxed around a large, toasty warm fire pit in the courtyard. The gardens and buildings at the winery are beautiful and provide a relaxed ambience to the whole place. This is a perfect place to go to enjoy a relaxing and delicious, low pressure lunch.
翻译:昨天,我的儿子带我们在银杏餐厅享用午餐。这里的服务水平极高,堪比我们平时光顾的餐厅,实在难能可贵。我们点的菜品有袋鼠里脊肉、脆皮猪腹肉、大西洋三文鱼熏肉、枫糖烤蔬菜以及佛卡夏面包。甜品则是阿弗戈托冰淇淋配意式奶冻,最后还享用了咖啡。食物美味可口,摆盘精致,酱汁更是出色,风味浓郁且层次丰富。对我来说,袋鼠肉是最令人难忘的佳肴——既嫩滑又多汁。我也特别喜欢餐桌上种类繁多的嫩蔬菜,尤其是欧洲防风草。作为指定司机,我在酒庄通常只能喝水,不过Goldings酒庄提供了一系列有趣的“七月无酒精饮品”,都是我以前从未尝过的。我最喜欢的那种饮品里含有真正的茴芹籽,还带有一丝姜与蜂蜜的甜味。午餐后,我们在庭院里围坐在温暖宜人的篝火旁放松休息。酒庄里的花园与建筑十分优美,为整个地方营造出轻松惬意的氛围。这里是享受一顿轻松自在又美味可口的午餐的绝佳去处。
