Square Meal Review of Briarfields at Titchwell ?

Pitched on the big-skied north Norfolk coast, Briarfields hits diners with the full force of top-notch produce from the area, & its impressive tasting menu giving visitors six opportunities to sample some rich local pickings: frothy butternut squash velouté comes with brittle puff-pastry ‘twiglets’, while tiny Brancaster crab beignets are crisp & flavoursome. The kitchen isn’t afraid to take risks – a creamily moreish ‘porridge risotto’ really worked alongside ballottine of Norfolk partridge – though some flourishes can gild the lily: the tarragon & mustard mayo with a black pudding-wrapped quail’s egg proved one overpowering flavour too far. The seasonal carte is also worth a punt (look for local venison & sea-fresh cockles), & service is good-natured – if not note-perfect. Though Briarfields’ sprawling dining room is the least attractive part of the hotel, it’s popular with bright-eyed tourists & retirees from the village.

    Being a regular visitor to this part of Norfolk and the nearby Titchwell Bird Reseve, I have experienced Briarfields on numerous occasions and always come way delighted. The food and service have aways been excellent and great value for money.

    I had the ultimate experience this week ( 8th Nov 2011) when my partner bought me a birthday present of a day in the Briarfields kitchen with Head Chef Ben Handley. (She obviously thinks I need some cookery lessons!)

    Not only did I pick up loads of tips on cooking but I also saw at first hand the creativity and quality that goes into the hotel menus. It was great fun making the fresh bread and preparing squid caught that morning. I thought I misheard it when Ben said that the main course venison dish would include some cocoa! Boy was it not only creative but tastey.

    It was certainly a day to remember. The Briarfields apron that I was given as a souvenir now takes pride of place in my own kitchen. If you are looking for a great birthday present for someone the look no further.
