Did You Say Snails?
The Little Snails Restaurant
Pyrmont
Garden snails. The things you find in your backyard. The shells you step on after in rains in Summer. Take you back to when you were a kid, collecting them in a bucket.
Snails, its not something I would have ever considered eating.
BUT OH BOY WAS A I WRONG!
I have known about The Little Snail for quite some time, but I’ve only managed to visit it the other day. The Little Snail restaurant is located in the iconic Darling Harbour, Sydney. I was actually quite surprised when learning that for 3-course lunch menu, they ‘only’ charge $38. I think it’s quite a decent price given the location of the restaurant.
For mains, I had the beef tenderloin with a red wine jus and the salmon on crab risotto. The beef was delicious and very well cooked. The jus was rich and flavoursome and it was a satisfying dish to eat.
The salmon was also well cooked, the risotto and roasted pepper coulis were the perfect accompaniment.
Calamari was perfectly cooked; lightly crunchy batter and soft and succulent meat, with no chewiness at all.
The Snails, were a dish to share. Cause when you are at a French Resturant ... why not?
The snails... Oh my, the snails. In a rich butter and garlic sauce! A must try here.
I wasnt expecting so much flavour. I must say having snail for the first time is weird. The texture is unusual. But looking beyond that and you will be encapsulated with the seasoning, the fresh combination of herbs and the side of fresh bread.
The desserts of creme caramel and sticky date pudding were a great finish to the meal. The right portion size was given. The date pudding was moist with a light caramel drizzle placed all over. A wonderful treat to end the night!
The servings are good and overall it was a great experience.
